If ith this idea in mind, peruse a fejc Urns of tliis one in llie hope of becoming interested. For the second time dlirint the life of El Rodeo, every de- partment of U. S. C. has voluntarily pooled its individuality and its specialized loyalty in the interest of a University annual, throui h which we have endeavored to present TROJAN SPIRIT at its best. Although the University section has been enlarged and the Greek letter societies brought together, class and student body organizations, as formerly, have necessarily been emphasized by grouping them under the respective college sections of ivhich they are a part. This arrange- ment, although not ideal from an editor ' s standpoint, accurately repn- sents a peculiar situation as it exists — a city U niversity of nine colli gis. five of ivhich are located at varying distances from the central campus, and each of which deserves individual representation. This brief foreward is not an advertisement of the book ice present. li ' e realized at the beginning ii ' e could have but one opportunity, tcith but a mediocre bank account, to publish an annual, and have prepared it as best we could, feature over its pages and judge for yourself. If you are shocked because you are caught in the coils of ' Tin- Lasso or the josh section, ive are deeply sympathetic; if you are enraged because your name is misspelled ivith an o instead of an a. we are sorry; if you are disappointed because your picture is not as handsome as you icish it were, we beg your forgiveness. But after the ROUND-UP is over, if you are inspired ivith the spirit of the GREATER UNIFERSITY, we are satisfied. Wai-ter T. Watson.

Where golden sands with golden fruit And golden grain are teeming, But ne ' er a spot though seeming fair, On mountain shore or lea. In keeping has such memories as The halls of U. S. C. We dwell neath ever sunny skies, ' Mid flowers ever springing, Where pleasing verdure never dies. And birds are always singing. ' Mid whispers of eternal seas. That ever shall endure — Oh, U. S. C. our love for thee Unchanging is and sure. Oh, dear old school, thy classrooms are To us new worlds revealing; Thy rallying times have sent new life Into our being stealing; Thy ties have bound us each to each. And brightened all our days. And life means more, a boundless store. Since we have trod thy ways. And when the restless, hopeful years To other scenes shall woo us. And joys and struggles of these days Are but a memory to us. Amid life ' s disappointing cares Our hearts will turn to thee. And for thy sake fresh courage take, Our own dear U. S. C. George Finley Bovard President University of Southern California President ' s Message To the members of the Class of 1917 and the readers of El Rodeo I extend cordial greetings. Scarcely does the ink get dry on one edition of El Rodeo until another is coming from the press ; thus it seems, at least, because of the very busy world in which we live. Men and women who have spent three years or more in intensive study under the guidance and leadership of faculty specialists ought to have attained to a fair degree of scholarship. The world has a right to expect this of you, and it will hold you responsible for a type of service, both in quality and efficiency, commensurate with your opportunities. It is the business of the University to train men to think and to act, and in these days we need men who will think and act for the right. Someone has said, The scholar is the sensitive barometer which first feels the lowered pressure of neglected duty, the first warning of the coming storm. The warn- ing he gives his neighbors may not be received with favor ; but that is not his concern ; he is not asking for favors. His business is the truth and the appli- cation of the truth to the affairs of our race. I appeal to you in the name of the University that you do your full share of the thinking and acting in this time of the world ' s greatest crisis. Wise leadership is the crying need. Ig- norant and blind leadership will surely result in disaster, and if college men and women do not come forth in the world ' s emergency and supply the need, then they must bear the responsibility of the disastrous consequences ; for the clear-headed, uncompromising wisdom essential to effective leadership is the birthright of the educated man. In the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail. Nevertheless in college and out of college we meet many disappointing facts. But disap- pointing facts need not lead to discouraging conclusions. Caleb and Jeshua saw the same disappointing facts that were seen by the other ten spies, but they concluded differently because they included differently. The ten faced the situation by themselves, the two faced it with God. The ten judged God in sight of their difficulties, and said, It cannot be done. The two judged the difficulties in the sight of God, and said, We are able. Let the odds be against us, and obstacles seem insurmountable ; we have but to include the Almighty in faith, and ourselves in fidelity, and let God draw conclusions. He shall not fail, nor be discouraged, is the divine intention concerning every one of us. George F. Bovard. UMIERSITY Page 15 TERM EXPIRES IN 1916 Alvah W. Adkinson, A.M., D.D. Wesley W.

All belong to different types. The State University, since its foundation, has taken a high rank among state insti- tutions. It draws its revenues from the state, is under a board of regents appointed by the state authorities, and, like other institutions of the kind, makes no provision for religious training or theological erudition. Stanford University is also without any theological department or theological chair ; it belongs to the foundational universities such as Johns Hopkins and Cornell Uni- versity, which have no connection with any religious denomination. Our own institution, on the other hand, belongs to an older type, like Yale and Prince- ton, which includes religious teaching among its main responsibilities and a College of Theology among its nine colleges. During the past dozen years there was a strong drift away from denomina- tional colleges to institutions on a purely secular basis. Happily, our university remains what it always was — a denominational institution, conservative in its teaching and yet liberal in its whole attitude. On our faculty and in our student body there are the same varieties of church aflfiliation as in a secular university; only the general management remains with the Methodist Church. During the period before us it is probable that there will be a powerful move- ment back to the old idea of a university as the home of colleges where the fundamentals of civilization are discussed and emphasized. Here on the Pacific Coast, close to another sister civilization, that of Latin America, and in immediate touch by water with the great Orient, Californians have a unique position for doing honorable work in the world, the high-grade work that centers in universities. Particularly with our own institution, the only one of the three leading universities where religion has a definite place in the organization and in the curriculum, is there a call to send out representa- tives south and west to teaching and missionary posts. Already we have done UNIVERSITY Page 18 well in this respect ; but with the development and strengthening of two de- partments, the Oriental and the Latin American, very much greater activity is assured. The newly organized Latin American Department of the University, co- operating with the departments of Spanish and History, has an ambitious plan of operations. It intends to standardize university courses in South and North America, so that the different systems employed may be easily evaluated. Al- though the southern continent has universities of greater age than those of the United States, there has been as yet no interchange of professors. Nor has there been brought together in this country, in any institution, a library of the history, literature and statistics of the Latin-American countries with whom we are coming every day into close relations. All this must be done on the basis of an accurate knowledge of the Spanish and Portuguese languages, indices of the subtle differences in the character and customs of the people of the northern and southern continents of this hemisphere. For the department, an especially suitable Director has been found in the person of Dr. Julius Ziegner-Uriburu. A graduate of the University of Buenos Aires, he spent several years in study abroad, and thereafter lost no opportunity of enlarging and deepening his acquaintance with the countries of Latin- America. He comes of a distinguished family, his uncle, Don Jose E. Uriburu, having been President of the Argentine Republic from 1895 to 1898. Already important information concerning entrance requirements, qualifi- cations for degrees, courses, etc., translated into Spanish from the U. S. C. Year-Boole, is in the hands of the printer and will be sent throughout South and Central America, Mexico and Cuba for the benefit of intending students. Competitive scholarships, the holders to be appointed by Ministers of Educa- tion, have been established in several countries of South America, and others are projected. The two courses of Spanish Lectures given this semester by Dr. Uriburu and prominent representatives of Latin-American countries are to be followed by instruction in Portuguese and other subjects of particular value in this field. In the Oriental Department, the Director, Dr. James Main Dixon, has secured the valuable services of Rev. John Hedley, for seventeen years stationed in Northern China, and a capable linguist. Professor Hedley has written a valuable and entertaining book, Tramps Through Dark Manchuria, and has contributed to the best journals dealing with Chinese life and civilization. He is personally acquainted with the present monarch of China, Yuan-Shi-Kai. His courses are already attracting much interest, and some of our leading graduates and undergraduates are planning to devote themselves to careers in the Orient.

After a long period of administrative activity, he came to us and entered upon a new line of work at a time when most men consider that their life work is done. As a teacher he excelled. He was not primarily interested in broadening the fields of knowledge ; he did not deprecate that work — he left it to others, and fully appreciated their efforts. His work was to develop the mind of the student, consequently he was more a student of students than he was a master of research. The product of his service here was not a series of volumes, monographs, essays and lectures, but a group of men and women inspired to study, to grow, to serve. No other can do his work. It is done. The credit for the achievement of many belongs to him. Respect, admiration, honor, love, are his.

CAMPUS Page 29 Lunar We are out of date, said Mrs. Man in the Moon to the Old r ailStir 1 ' • she passed him his plate of cheese. Her better half selected a verdant morsel and tossed the rest to the disembodied canine spirits yelping around him. Then, tilting back on his volcanic stool, he indifferently murmured, Yes? I should say so, resumed Mrs. Man, shedding a pitcher of moonlight on her hubby ' s fool-moon trousers in her excitement. Our traditions are wearing out. This cheese idea has been used as a joke for centuries on the earth. I tell you, if you ' d quit driving these flirting stellar lights in your yellow car and come down to earth you ' d see a thing or two. I found a place where they have more traditions than you ' ve had from the time you divorced Mother Earth. The other night, while driving my town- car through the trees, I came to a building with ' University of Southern Cali- fornia ' half-mooned over the entrance. Attracted by a low cooing from the windows, I slipped down through the leaves to discover its meaning. ' Oh, Archie! We ' ll be discovered! ' cried a feminine voice in the Earthotic tongue. ' Let ' s go around back, ' said a pantalooned voice in reply. ' Stay where you are, ' I assured them ; ' I ' m only Mrs. Man in the Moon. ' ' Oh, dear, no! ' the gowned one wailed. ' If we were caught Archie would get duck-ponded. ' Duck what? interrupted Old Man in the Moon, gulping down a whole cheese. Keep quiet, can ' t you? Well, I promised not to expose them if they would tell me everything. It was all about traditions. This Archie is what they call a Fresh Man. If he is caught sitting on the window seats, acting half as silly as you do when you pass Venus every evening, the poor biped is coiled around the garden fountain. Large specimens cannot always be inserted in the foun- tain trough, so their back-bones are laved by inserting a fire extinguishing tube at the b ack of the neck. But that isn ' t all. Archie can ' t use weeds in any form while on the college block, and the one in the frock can ' t, either. CAMPUS Page 30 They have funny days down there, too : Fresh-Soph Day, Senior Chapel Day, Senior Sneak Day, Junior Corduroy Day, El Rodeo Day, and Ivy Day. Archie and Mrs. Archie (I guess that ' s her name) told me all about it. On Fresh-Soph Day these Fresh Men and another genus called Sopho Mores meet in word combats, ball throwing, and a game where everyone tries to pull a rope to pieces. Then all shake hands. In the pushball fracas these same clans push a big ball in opposite directions and don ' t accomplish much. This year all Fresh Men wore hats of a color. Juniors wear something, too. Beginning on Junior Corduroy Day, they don pants resembling washboard lining running perpendicularly. Sen- iors just wear regulation El Rodeo hats. On Senior Chapel Day, seniors drape themselves and take charge of the music and flowered diction. Sen- ior Sneak Day, so Archie says, means that on that day there are no Seniors sneaking around. Ivy Day comes at the end of the year. The Senior tribe bury an ivy plant, using an instrument about the size of that spoon of yours to dig the hole. Even, ' class using it carves a piece of the alphabet on it. On this day the chiefs of the senior and junior clans lay the Blue-Smoke Rule on the table and whiff the Pipe of Peace. The pipe, they say, doesn ' t feel good, but it is meant to show good feeling. Next, the seniors display a number cut in stone around the large Chapel window, after which they give the juniors the Sack and Dog-On-Button. The Sack is known as the Mystery Bag and contains hair-pins and other mysteries. The Dog-On-Button is just a nice dog on a button. But I forgot to tell you about the Faculty Pill toss and the Junior play and But the Man in the Moon was full — and sound asleep. THE 1915 IVl ' CAMPUS Page 31 Junior-Senior - ' after three years of intense rivalry with RanmiPt their friends of 1915, the juniors royally entertained the seniors in the annual junior-senior banquet at Hotel Maryland, Pasadena, President and Mrs. G. F. Bovard and Dr. and Mrs. E. S. Bogardus being the guests of honor. In the address of the evening Dr. Bogardus spoke on College Days. Toastmaster Walter Longmoor intro- duced the various speakers, who responded to toasts as follows: Arthur Chap- man ' 16, A Few Grains of Sand ; Kay Obear ' 15, The Backward Glance ; Rosalie Bunker ' 16, Prospecting ; Fred Allen ' 15, The Pig-iron World. Selections by the Junior Quartet, readings by Rachael Graves, and Alma Mater, sung with real U. S. C. spirit, added further spice to the occasion. After the banquet, guests and hosts spent a pleasant social hour in the recep- tion hall. Senior Important among the chapel services of the college year, ( hanel Oav ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ° ' °° f active part. Keeping step to the prelude played b}- Guelph McQuinn, the wearers of the cap and gown marched proudly to the distinguished places usually occupied by the faculty. In their absence, even the professorless chairs seemed to inspire tlu- smiois. COMMENCEMENT DAY, JUNE 10 CAMPUS Page 32 Devotionais were conducted by Fred Ross ; Emery Foster sang ; Ralph Davis, in his oration, Retrospect, vividly pictured the meaning of four j ' ears of col- lege life; Jane Wyatt and Dorothy Betts sang; Cecilia Irvine, in Prospect, foretold the future of the graduate after his separation from his Alma Mater. Baccalaureate Culture of Personality was the subject of the in- prmnn spiring baccalaureate message given by Dr. Francis M. Larkin, Editor of the California Christian Advocate, to the graduating class on June 6, 1915. The inner man, said the speaker, is the sine qua non of humanity ' s hope. The brain is not the inner man, continued Dr. Larkin. This organ is as physical as the arm. But remember, there is something back of the physical, which we call personality. Commencement Four hundred twenty-five seniors received de- T _ grees or certificates from President Bovard, June 10, 1915. Clad in black caps and gowns, with bright hoods in the university colors over their arms, graduates, faculty, university officials, and commencement speakers formed in academic procession at the Lib- eral Arts building and marched to the Shrine Auditorium. While the orches- tra played Hoellander ' s Processional Marche, the long line moved slowly down the aisles, past the five thousand friends and relatives who were waiting. The service opened with the singing of the national hymn, after which Rev. Thomas Newlin, the commencement chaplain, offered prayer. Bishop Edwin Holt Hughes, the commencement speaker, in his address upon the Perils of Knowledge, warned the seniors against the dangers of self-consciousness in their education, against the assumption of superiorit ' , and against the substitu- tion of learning for character. The honorary degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred upon George Ira Cochran and Charles Edward Locke; the degree of Doctor of Divinity upon IN ACADEMIC PROCESSION CAMPUS Page S3 Thomas Newlin and Daniel McGillivray Gandier; the degree of Doctor of Science upon Laird Joseph Stabler. The benediction brought the impressive exercises to a close. lyy Marching between Dav ' ' s of ivy held by the juniors, the seniors wound around the campus in the annual Ivy day ceremony. Lyman Thayer, president of the Medical seniors, delivered the salutatory address; Hallam Anderson, president of the Liberal Arts seniors, spoke on uni- versity traditions. Other officers explained the traditions of the sen- ior class. Eunice Oerter handed down the mystery bag; Margaret Northrup, the dog-on-button ; and George Benefiel the baseball bat. Hallam Anderson ' 15, and Wal- ter Longmoor ' 16, smoked the pipe of peace, after which repre- sentatives of the two classes buried the hatchet. Vivian Orban of Fine Arts unveiled the class numerals, which had been carved, with the class flower, beneath the chapel windows. Following short addresses by Arthur Lufkin, Harold Stonier, Harry Schwark, and Edward Collins, Kenneth Newell, the retiring student-body president, presented the key, the insignia of the office, to President-elect Arthur Chapman. Ralph Davis presented the class gift, an electrically regulated clock for the main hall. President G. F. Bovard responded. Then came the planting of the ivy and the joy ceremony. All joined in the singing of Alma Mater, and the thirty-second annual commencement was ended. PEACE PIPE BURHL OF THE HATCHET CAMPUS Page 34 Junior The American people like to be humbugged. If this old r imi s adage of P. T. Barnum ' s is true, the Junior Circus, presented on Bovard Field on April 14, was one of the best entertainments ever given on the campus. Those who came to see an amateur performance stayed to see a real circus. Before the big show began, there was plenty of time to feed the animals and to view three-eyed Murphy, the trick-horse, Bluebeard ' s wives, and all the other attractions. Real elephants were there, and sure-enough elephant riding proved to be a pastime which the faculty enjoyed. Two of our professors, in fact, would have monopolized this new jitney had not the dignity of their positions restrained them. The main event of the evening started at ten o ' clock. Clowns, peanut vend- ers and elephants were arrayed in gay colors and laughable costumes. Cannibal girls were there. Electrical displays and fireworks added to the excitement. The circus closed in order to give the wear} ' participants time to count the financial results by candle-light. El Rodeo Volume Ten of El Rodeo was officially presented to the r _ University on May 28, on behalf of the Class of 1916, by Editor Clifford Burr and Manager Ugene Blalock. Although the eleven hundred copies of the Exposition Number were not distributed until a week later, editions of the annual were on exhibition in all the colleges, the entire university celebrating its appearance. With a feeling of pride over the completion of their book, the junior class, white-clad and enthusiastic, met at noon in the cafeteria, where short speeches were given by Wilbur Long, Clif- ford Burr, Arthur Chapman, Rosalie Bunker, Ugene Blalock, and Hunter Clark. Shortly afterward, huge sight-seeing trucks stopped in front of the campus, inviting the eager juniors to choose their places. ' Mid the rousing strains of rackety-hackety, they left the university, traveling straight for the blue Pa- cific, with Malibu Ranch as the final destination. Upon their arrival, it is said that they laid aside all signs of approaching seniority and frolicked on the C.1MPUS Page 35 EL RODEO DAY — CLASS OF 1916 sandy shore. The return trip led through Venice and Ocean Park, where a race through the clouds and a dip in the ocean prepared them for the tra- ditional weinie roast on the beach. ]Vla.y While Japanese lanterns bobbed, and strains of Coming Festival T hrough the Rye floated in the air, throngs of students and their friends entered the Oriental portals to honor the Queen of May at the annual May Festival. Soon the crowd was hushed by a bugle call, and Miss Jane Wyatt, Queen of the May, appeared. Her majesty was enter- tained by members of her court, the Men ' s and Women ' s Glee clubs, and three hundred members of the gymnasium classes, under the direction of Miss Cocks. As the Queen ascended the throne, Dutch girls, milkmaids, merry Robin Hood yeomen, May-flowers, Japanese maids, Elizabethan courtiers, and flower- wreathed fairies appeared to charm her with characteristic dances. IN HONOR OF THE QUEEN CAMPUS Page 36 QUEEN OF THE MAY MAY POLE DANCE The success of the evening was largely due to the untir- ing efforts of the manager, Inez Marks. The favorites who took part in the corona- tion ceremony were Jessie Mauzy ' 15; Queen Masters ' 15; Katherine O ' Bear ' 15; Bessie Jones ' 16; Esther Manning ' 17, and Helen Wallace ' 18, from the Col- lege of Liberal Arts, together with Gretchen Gallinger, Fine Arts; Margaret White, Music; Bertha Hilton, Pharmacy, and Agnes Scholl, Medicine. Pushball Pushball has Contest ' ' ' ' ' ' ° ' ' ' ' - On September 22, after a third postpone- ment, the first pushball con- test ever held in a southern college was played on Bovard Field between the Liberal Arts underclassmen. To the cheering of seven hundred co-eds, the freshmen easily overwhelmed the sophomore forces by a score of 23 to 0. From the instant that the whistle blew the big ball was never quiet. During the first few min- utes of play there seemed to be no advantage for either side. Then, suddenly, WHAT THE SOPHS SAID CAMPUS Page 37 PAJAMARINO RALLY, BOVARD FIELD WAITING FOR THE NIGHT-SHIRT PARADE CAMPUS Page 38 a freshman pyramid formation sent the huge sphere down the field and be- tween the goal-posts for an under. This counted five points. Although men of football fame led the Sophs, the Fresh outmaneuvered their opponents, and by clever interference, rapidly increased their score. To- ward the middle of the last period, the second-year men temporarily revived, and for a few brief moments, played the victors to a standstill. Here it was that the youngsters executed a successful end run, which resulted in the final score of the game. The older men sank into the bitter background, with firm resolutions to re-establish the grease-pole and the traditional color rush. Frosh Every known type of aquatic flame-extinguisher was em- Tmmprsirtn P ' oV ' quenching the love-sparks in the breasts of six fresh- men lads who just couldn ' t help chatting with the lassies. Having coralled the ardent youths in the field, sophomore, junior and senior leaders bound the victims and left them to the mercy of the improvised fire brigade. A moist stream spurting from the fire hose dampened the habiliments of the spoony six, while an oozy puddle soon marooned them from the mainland. Chanel When the pressure from pent-up excitement registers at the top ■pjjll. of the gauge, public welfare demands that someone step on the safety valve to let off the steam. Rallies furnish the least objec- tionable exhaust for its escape. The first night rally of the year was staged in the University chapel on No- vember 9 to arouse enthusiasm for the Varsity-Oregon game on the following Saturday. From the time when rackety-hackety re-echoed through the halls till the last strains of Alma Mater announced the close of the evening ' s pro- gram, something was doing all the time. Under the leadership of the pep generators, the competitive yelling and singing resulted in a display of noise similar to that prevalent in the European war zone. Nor were the usual foot- ball speeches lacking. Following short addresses by Coach Glaze and Professor Tully Knoles, a clever football skit, written by Ethelynne Smith, was presented. PaiamarinO Then, just preceding the Thanksgiving game, came the ■p_]1 annual pajamarino. The bleachers, from end to end, were alive with loyal Trojans. For seven days previously the freshmen had gathered all flammable material near the campus; for seven nights they had collected the wood unavailable by daylight. Never did a fire burn more brightly than the huge bonfire in the middle of the field. Early in the evening the big California bear, contributed by the Pharmies, was blown sky- high. Then, around the giant pyre which they had erected, danced the night- shirted babes, giving to the flames their yellow hats, those symbols of fresh- manship. CAMPUS Page 39 CamD iffn One of the most important events of the year was the ban- r quet in the Broadway roof garden cafe, on March 24, 1916, DdllCJUcl when three hundred and fifty influential citizens of Southern California and a number of students of the university met to consider plans fot the two-million-dollar campaign now under way. It was here that Dr. J. W. Hancher, assistant secretary of the General Board of Education of the Metho- dist Church, explained the campaign to increase the endowment fund of the university. Bishop Edwin H. Hughes predicted that within twenty years Southern Cali- fornia would be one of the central strongholds of Methodism, and that the progress of the university would show that we now are just at nine o ' clock in the morning. Dr. A. E. Craig, president of Morningside College, and Dr. J. P. Jenkins, vice-president of Dakota Wesleyan College, also delivered short addresses. Skull and Mm the din of pv the conflict, i agger j g. Initiations ger pledges at- tired in the glaring costumes of all ages, staged a miniature football game at Washington Park on Decem- ber 14 between the halves of the Whittier-U. S. C. game. The semi-initiates received fur- ther introduction to the rites of the society when the initiation ceremony was formally com- pleted in the evening. The initiates were Arthur Chapman ' 16, Ugene Blalock ' 16, Grafton P. Tanquary ' 16, Roscoe Frasher ' 16, Len Liver- nash ' 17, Walter Watson ' 17, Clifford Hughes ' 17, Harold Morton of Law School, Eugene Warren ' 16, and the honorary members, Dr. Roy Malcolm and Dean Frank Porter. The second semester initiation on April 29, was conducted at Hotel Virginia, Long Beach, preliminary to the formal ban- quet in honor of the initiates. Twenty-two couples were present. The new men were Wilbur Bradley ' 16, Homer Watson ' 16, Leo Liver- nash ' 16, Herbert Richmond of the College of Dentistry, and Hugh Willet, graduate.

L i)jl THE WAR COD Dramatics Dramatics The presentation of a carefully selected play, by a well- Qf TT C drilled company from the junior class, is the amateur pro- duction in U. S. C. around which most interest centers. The less ambitious sketches and plays staged by the Shakespeare club and Lance and Lute honor society are largely subordinated to the one conspicuous dramatic event of the year. The present junior class upheld the high standard set by other classes, both in the choice and interpretation of worthy drama. On December 9, in Manual Arts auditorium, the class of 1917 staged Israel Zangwill ' s five-act tragedy, The War God, preceding it by a curtain-raiser, Bernard Shaw ' s one-act satire, The Man of Destin ' . A second performance was given the follow- ing afternoon. The combination of The War God and The Man of Destiny in one evening ' s program was noteworthy in at least two respects. In the first place, these timely plays give a contrasted treatment of the same subject — mili- tarism — by two modern thinkers and playwrights. The first is an earnest attack upon the military spirit, the second a clever thrust at military glory. In the second place, the intrinsic value of these dramatists ' work is of a somewhat high order, Zangwill in particular having done fine things in blank verse. ' PJ g The title role of Count Torgrim, a stern militarist, who be- ■tX7__ r oH lieves himself under the direct guidance of heaven, was inter- preted by Harry Rasmus. The effective way in which he portrayed the dominant Chancellor was felt from the rise to the fall of the curtain. Faye Hughes, who had the part of the Lady Norma, a pacifist who DR. M. TICS Page 42 would make war to the knife against the lords of war, gave a bit of dramatic acting that stamped her work with an individual touch. The conflict of the play centers about Osric, the Chancellor ' s son, whose soldierly bearing was well suggested by Alvin Wendt. A fourth typical figure, Karl Blum, the Chancellor ' s secretary, who voices the attitude of Judaism toward militaristic Christianity, was consistently interpreted by Voltaire Per- kins. The play is dominated by the figure of the martyr. Count Frithiof, the prophet of peace ; to this part F. Marion Smith was fitted by voice and physique. In the part of the Princess Elsa of Hunland, Aileen Renison por- trayed a gracious, charming personality. Isabel Long interpreted the part of Martha in true servant girl style. The keynote of the play is sounded by Count Frithiof in rebuke of the Chancellor: The god of war is now a man of business — With vested interests. The Man of Destiny In the Man of Destiny, which reveals Napoleon, not as a world conqueror, but a young general in an early cam- paign, Walter Spaeth did some creditable acting in the title role. The Strange Lady, a clever adventuress, who worsts the Little Cor- poral in endeavoring to get away with some dispatches, was made a fascinat- ing character study by Helenita Lieberg. William Dallas played the difficult role of Guiseppe with characteristic levity. THE MAN OF DESTINY DRAMATICS Page 43 COURT BALLET — THE WAR GOd On the whole, the Junior cast presented an artistic, carefully worked-out interpretation, well up to the standard of The Passing of the Third Floor Back of 1914, and The Servant in the House of 1913. The plays were stamped with the careful training and coaching of Mr. Nattkemper. THE PLAY Manual Arts Auditorium December 9, 10, 1915 Director Leonard G. Nattkemper Assistant Director Ethelynne M.

TICS Page 44 Debating EMERY OLSON Debating Manager The banquet given to the Stanford de- Cp_„„j_. baters, one of the speakers remarked, in a humorous vein: Students in Southern Cal- ifornia take as naturally to debating as ducks to water. Certainly a high standard has been maintained from year to year in the forensic art ; but the present college year has eclipsed all others for the number and variety of universities met. In addition to the triangular de- bate against Occidental and Pomona and the freshman schedule, there were contests with Stanford and Texas; while the Law School met Denver, Montana, Arizona, and New Mexico, and for the first time in the history of debating, a team of three was brought across the continent from Columbia University, and in Trinity Auditorium, April 14, a unanimous decision was won by the local team. With a strong chapter of Delta Sigma Rho, the na- tional honor debating and oratorical society, the promise of an extensive schedule with leading universities, and the gift of $1250 by Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Bowen of this city as a permanent fund for debate prizes, a fitting culmination to the $60 donated this year by Messrs. Bowen and Murdock for debate trophies, interest in debating next fall should be greater than ever. Stanford University of Southern California met Stanford in debate, Virforv ° ' ' ™ ' J ' ! ' ' ' ' ' ° ° ' ° ' - ' ' citing contests of the year and against three of Stanford ' s most force- ful and experienced speakers, won a two-to-one decision. The debate was held in the local auditorium before an enthusiastic audience that did not leave even standing room. The question was: Resolved, That the federal govern- ment should own and operate all railroads engaging in interstate traffic, e.xcept interurban electric lines crossing state boundaries. Constitutionality was waived by mutual agreement. U. S. C. was ably represented by E. Neal Ames and John C. Haynes, both of the College of Law, and Reuel L. Olson of Liberal Arts. Stanford ' s de- baters were A. Morosco, M. L. McClintock and M. Crobaugh. There was a very real clash of arguments in the debate. Each speaker met squarely the contentions of the preceding debater, and into the rebuttal there FOREKSICS Page 46 was injected a good deal of wholesome humor. While the debate was on a difficult subject, the speeches were usually lacking in technical detail. No well- timed argument, no shrewd rebuff of a sharp attack was allowed to pass un- noticed by the large audience, who, after the debate, waited in tense suspense for the decision. A tremendous cheer followed the announcement of the result. Much credit is due to Professor J. L. Chesnutt, debating coach, and many members of the faculty, who offered suggestions and criticisms. Mayor Sebastian presided. TriEnP ' ula.r 1 annual triangle debate between the University of South- OpKjifP California, Occidental and Pomona resulted in a defeat to our two teams. Dec isions, however, are the least impor- tant part of a university debate, except in so far as they contribute toward making game losers and generous winners. Both the teams of U. S. C. which FORENSICS Page 47 lost by a two-to-one vote of the judges took the unfavorable decision like gen- tlemen ; the six men who took part in the contest showed clearly the result of serious study and arduous training, and the chain of argument they developed was a credit to themselves and the university. The debate was held on the evening of March 2, upon the question : Re- solved, that the United States government should acquire and operate an ocean-going merchant marine. The affirmative team, Alvin Wendt, William Bonnelli and Leland Holland, met the negative team upon the home rostrum. Representing the negative team of U. S. C. at Eagle Rock against Occidental were Harold Brewster, Donnell Smith and Harvey Wendt. Professor T. C. Knoles presided. The judges were: Dr. W. H. Snyder of Hollywood high school. Rev. Thomas C. Marshall and Judge W. I. Morrison. Debate of The women of U. S. C. have demonstrated their spirit and j-Up _ prl j versatility more than once by taking part in varied activities of the university. The concerts of the Girls ' Glee club dur- ing the winter and the delightful May-day festival in the spring reflect great credit on the fair co-eds. But it remained for Misses Louise Horton, Ida Woehr, and Frances E. Kallstedt to invade the field of debate and win a de- cision from Occidental. This was the second annual women ' s debate participated in by U. S. C, a victory having been wrested from the Occidental girls a year ago. The con- test took place in the local auditorium, March 21, 1916, upon the question: Resolved, that Los Angeles should own and operate its own street railway. Texas The forceful, fiery eloquence of the representatives from the Lone r pKatp ' ' ' feature of the debate held on April 26, when the University of Texas defeated U. S. C. on the question, Resolved, That a material increase in the armv and navv of the United States FORENSICS Page 48 over that obtained, or provided for, on August 1, 1915, is justifiable. Leo Daze and Ugene Blalock of U. S. C. upheld the affirmative against Orville Wood and Charles Francis, the Texas team. Freshmen The freshman debating schedule of the year has included de- Q 1 1 1 bates with Redlands University, Pomona freshmen, San Diego oCneaUlc junior College, and an interclass debate with the sophomores. Samuel Stagg and Samuel Steelman, arguing against an increase of army and navy forces, met a team from Redlands University in the U. S. C. Liberal Arts auditorium on the evening of May 4. Paul Wilcox and Robert Zimmer- man, on the afternoon of the same day, represented the class of ' 19 in the annual interclass debate with the sophomores, discussing the advisability of having journalists licensed by the state or federal government. George Haight and Howard Butterfield, on the evening of May 4, met Pomona freshmen at Pomona. They debated the affirmative of the increased armament question. On the evening of April 12, Clifford Henderson and Dow Hoffman upheld the negative of the question, Resolved, that the Philippines should be granted independence within four years, having as their opponents two representatives of the San Diego Junior College. Freshman- unique feature of the annual Freshman-Sophomore day Q 1 in the spring is the open-air debate, when a team of three oOpnOmOre representing each class match wits on some interesting ques- DeOEte tion. The class of 1917 came off victorious in this battle of words, as they did the preceding year, worsting the fresh- men by a two-to-one decision. This outdoor contest was held on the afternoon of May 5, 1915, at Exposition Park. The freshman class was represented by Field, Olson and Bunker; the sophomore, by Lyon, Smith and Griffin, upon the question: Resolved, that the closed shop of organized labor should be pro- hibited. FORENSICS Page 49 Oratory Peace Harold L. Brewster ' 18, representing U. S. C, secured first r nntP ;f pl ce in the Southern Oratorical Peace Contest, held in Pomona, on the evening of May 21, 1915, against the representatives oi the other southern colleges. In the local peace contest this year, Ugene Blalock won first place. First oratorical honors were won by the representative of Western U. S. C, Ugene Blalock, in the Western Interstate contest. Prohibition October 15, 1915, in Berkeley. Mr. Blalock had qualified OonteSt himself to represent California by winning state honors a year ago this spring. The contest was held in Hearst Hall of the University of California, before a large audience, among whom were thirty-five former U. S. C. students. His oration was entitled, Our National Welfare, and won five out of six possible firsts. Having won the Coast championship and the cash prize of $75, Mr. Blalock will represent the Western states at the national contest next year. In the local prohibition contest, April 17, Harold Brewster ' 18 won first place. Old Line Among a large number of contestants in the old line Intercol- Oratnriral ' S ' Oratorical contest, Ugene Blalock, U. S. C. ' s repre- sentative, won second place, Brougher of Occidental taking first. The contest took place April 17, at Whittier. Out of 26 contests, U. S. C. has won 15 victories. Peace local peace tryouts held in April, Ugene Blalock qualified Trvonts himself to represent U. S. C. in the 1916 southern contest by winning a close contest over George Fenimore. FORENSICS Page 50 Numerous changes and innovations have featured the fourth year of the erstwhile Daily Southern Californian, now The Southern California Tro- jan. The change in name grew out of the desire to have one which would be more typical of the university. The words Southern Californian connoted nothing specific, while the word Daily afforded a meaningless appellation for the paper. The addition of the word Trojan, however, as being typical and peculiar to the university, make The Southern California Trojan a name which immediately suggests U. S. C. and the spirit of its students. As a means of guaranteeing the regular appearance of the Trojan, one dollar and a half was added to the fees to be paid by all Liberal Arts students on registration. Through the active co-operation of the professional colleges, non-campus students now receive the Trojan.

PUBLICATIONS Page 53 Foremost among the student tasks to be performed at the University of Southern California is the pleasant duty which presents itself to every class during its junior year in the preparation and publication of El Rodeo. To PUBLIC A TIONS Page 54 NAIHA-S PERKINS SHARH SPAI.TV SEDWEEK NIXON CARD DURHAM SMITH HUGHES KILL O ' NEIL ALLIN HANNING BRADLEY SOWDEN BROCKMAN LONG EVANS HENRICKSON GRIFFIN WITHERELL CAMPBELL RENISON round up the events of the year, to chronicle the grow-th of the Greater Uni- versity by representing as many varied aspects of university life as possible, to leave a permanent record of the achievements of the student body — this task has become increasingly difficult with the steady expansion of the university. Published for the first time by the Class of 1899, a small paper-covered pamphlet containing one hundred fifty-two pages was distributed among the student body just prior to the 1898 commencement. This was Volume I of El Rodeo, a tribute, indeed, to the university, but an even greater tribute to the untiring efforts of Editor C. E. D. Ballou and Manager Philo Jones. Because succeeding classes lacked the courage of their predecessors, a lapse of nine years ensued before the publication of a second annual, under the editorship of Herman Beckwith and Christine Westrem of the Class of 1908. Since the issue of this beautiful black leather-bound volume of three hundred pages, El Rodeo has been an established part of our university life, and has appeared yearly under the direction of each succeeding junior class. El Rodeo 1909, with Editor Leslie Gay, Jr., and Manager Chester Bowers in charge, was much larger and more complete than either of the other volumes, the art work especially forming a unique feature. Profiting by the experience of previous editors and managers, Clyde Collison and Edwin Crall, represent- ing the Class of 1910, published a book which several succeeding classes were unable to duplicate. This volume of four hundred pages had as a feature a josh department under the name of Kollege Kid ' s Kompanion, containing PUBLIC A TWNS Page 55 many elements of novelty and originality that have since been adopted for use in other college annua ls. In Volume V, published by Samuel Dick and Ben Scot of the Class of 1911, the old method of arrangement was revised and colored inserts were introduced at the beginning of each division of the book. El Rodeo 1912, although unfor- tunately greatly diminished in size, was carefully organized, recording accu- rately and interestingly the events of the year. William Palmer and Luther Huston served, respectively, as editor and manager of its publication. The makers of succeeding annuals — Ainsely Kirchkoffer and Harold Stonier, Everett Mattoon and Howard Henshey, Hallam Anderson and Heck Marvin, the respective representatives of the classes of 1913, 1914, and 1915 — strove unceasingly, but without success, to secure the publication of a truly university annual. El Rodeo, itself, in the meantime, was gradually increasing in size, and steadily developing along the standard lines of a university annual ; but assuming, during its growth, an individuality peculiar to the complex organiza- tion of the various colleges o f our own university. El Rodeo 1915, in many respects the best of the volumes published, was a distinct factor in the attain- ment of this ideal. Due largely to the growing feeling of unity among the students of the affil- iated colleges, combined with the co-operative spirit of the student leaders at the College of Law and the personal efforts of Editor Clifford Burr and Manager Ugene Blalock, Stare Decisis, the Law annual, was incorporated with El Rodeo 1916 in a real university book of five hundred and twenty pages. In spite of the fact that the 1916 annual was a university book, the struggle this year to continue El Rodeo as such has caused the present editor and man- ager many sleepless nights. The magnitude of this task may be realized when it is understood that El Rodeo is indeed a Round-Up, including between its covers what has been, at one time or another, the material for four separate and distinct books, namely: College of Law Stare Decisis, College of Dentistry Extracts, Preparatory School Codex, and El Rodeo proper. With the growth of the Greater University, and the corresponding development of uni- versity spirit, it is to be hoped that the idea of college individuality will never again become so pronounced that separate college annuals will be necessary to represent that individuality properly. PUBLICATIONS Page 56 sathleticss UlV e i lODEO The Athletic Year , The student of intercollegiate athletics knows that to win Vjraauaic during any athletic year is only a small link in the chain of iVlanager S permanent success. It is far more important that we win Statement cleanly, and that we build our teams of bona fide students; not necessarily A grade scholars, but men who are repre- sentative of the university. In building such a policy, which makes for perma- nent success, we must suffer slump years. From the selfish standpoint of win- ning contests, the past year has seen a slump. Our football team had a difficult schedule, but it was the best that we could arrange under the unsettled condition of athletics on the Pacific Coast. Our track team felt the effect of losing two world ' s champions. However, we had the strongest dual team in Southern California. Our football season was suc- cessful financially. This can be attributed to the revival of the popularity of American football, started in 1914 by the University of Southern California and brought to a climax by the University of California in 1915. Our success can further be attributed to big advertising, and the culmination of our policy of meeting the big universities of the state. This synopsis would not be complete without commending the Student Man- ager. He has been extremely efficient, energetic and loyal. The election of Dean B. Cromwell Director of Competitive Athletics has met with approval from students, faculty and alumni. With the freshman rule, his teams may not win everything the first year, but eventually he will build representative university teams. Warren B. Bovard. J Athletics have taken on a new aspect at the University of OlUaeiH Southern California during the past season. Football season Manager S ushered in the greatest financial success which was ever en- ' tatement joy d ' this sport. The receipts, which accrued from the California game, bear the distinction of being the greatest ever received from any football game in the south. The schedule provided for the season proved unusually strong, and the red-blooded battles staged when Oregon, California and Whittier clashed with the Varsity, sent thrills through the spectators which can never be forgotten. For the first time in years, basketball proved other than a financial failure. The last game was attended by the most enthusiastic crowd which ever wit- nessed a varsity basketball contest, Track coped with the other sports in upholding its end of the financial suc- cess. No profits resulted, for track fails in this respect in all our colleges; but a very minimum was shown to be lost as compared with former years. ATHLETICS Page 58 MILLIKAN Baseball CROMWELL Track GLAZE Football THE COACHES TESCHKE Freshmen All these facts stand out on the field of athletics like great white diamonds pointing the way to success.

Varsity- ° ' Neighbors, boasted as the best place-kicker and T A A ( long-distance forward-passer in the south, the Los Angeles Athletic Club invaded Trojan territory, only to be turned back with a 21-9 drubbing. The superiority of Trojan speed and aerial attack was clearly demonstrated when Captain Len Livernash plunged over the club goal line within four minutes of the opening whistle. Twenty-one points were accredited to the Varsity for their first thirty minutes ' work. In the second half the Mercury men took the aggressive. Inspired by a field goal and a touchdown, they rushed the ball to the four-yard line, where the Varsity stiffened and took the ball on downs. The game closed with the visitors fighting in the shadow of their own goal posts. VErsity- The Trojan machine was in perfect shape to meet the her- Cj- IVTarv ' s; ' ' eleven from Oakland by October 16. Although heavy and fast, the Catholics proved a decided disappointment, fall- ing an easy victim to the Varsity. The northerners were completely bewildered FOOTBALL Page 6i THE DEFENSE The line holds against St. Mary ' s DOWN ! ill I ' ackling an Oregon Back OFF TACKLE PLAY nash in the Whittier C, FOOTBALL Page 64 by terrific line plunges, lightning end runs, and sky-route attack of the Trojans, and were finally submerged under a 47-3 score. This game marked the last appearance of Fred Kelly, who was injured in a practice scrimmage the following week. His last official act was to circle the end for a si.xty-five yard end run to a touchdown. Varsity- Preliminaries over, the Trojan Varsity journeyed north for „T : , • the first real test of the season on October 23. Coach Glaze had done his work well. 1 here was not a weak spot m the line, while the famous 10 back-field had been perfected in running interference and in e.xecuting the forward pass. The defenders of the blue and gold proved worthy foes, fighting gamely to the last whistle, but submitting to a 28-10 defeat. With the exception of the first quarter, the Trojans were always in the lead. During this period, with the score 3-0 against them, Malette opened up for the Varsity with an aerial attack, which enabled Jerry Craig to plunge over the Bear ' s goal line. In the remaining periods the Varsity made three touchdowns, while California garnered one. Although the game was replete with thrills, one play will be remembered by the northerners for a college generation. It was a fifty-yard forward pass from Craig to Moseley. The line held perfectly. Werner and Livernash raced down the field, forming perfect interference for Moseley, who picked the ball out of the air, and carried it between the Bear ' s goal posts. Follow- ing closely on this play, the Trojan ardor was dampened by a severe injury to Leo Livernash, which kept him from playing during the rest of the season. The game ended with the Trojans threatening the goal of the desperate but helpless Bears. Varsity- marked contrast to the invincible Varsity of a week before, the Trojans were forced to bow to the mighty aggregation from Oregon University. Here was the vindication of the much maligned old style football. As against California, speed had outstripped weight, weight now trampled on speed. For thirty scoreless minutes, the two teams hurled each other from twenty-yard line to twenty-yard line. With the opening of the second half, the Varsity line weakened, permitting the Oregon men to amass 34 points. Curry was the big man on the defense. He seemed to be filling three positions at the same time. Marxen, by averting two touchdowns, came in for a share of the glory. Too much weight tells the story of the game. Varsity- Disorg.anized and battered, the Varsity was unable to regain T T(. L its stride before leaving on the long hard trip to Salt Lake City the following week. In spite of this handicap, it was only a luckily intercepted forward pass which decided the 20-13 battle in favor of the Utah team. FOOTBALL Page 65 The open play of the light, speedy Trojan backs was a revelation to the Utah followers, who arose to their feet time after time as the long passes sailed down the field. Livernash ' s forty-five-yard dash to a goal on a forward pass was a feature, while Craig ' s seventy-yard run to a touchdown through the whole Utah defense marked the climax. Malette, after being knocked out three times, was replaced by Holloway, who handled the team in credit- able manner. Xhankspivillff With only three days in which to recuperate after Dav Crame arriving home from Utah, the Varsity once more lined up against California. In the growing darkness, while the Trojans battled to retain a one point lead, the big Bear turned and struck hard. This tells the story of the Thanksgiving game at Washington Park. The score, 21-23, was a zigzaging one, with the Trojans leading through three and a half periods. The Varsity relied on open football, while the Bears played the sort of game their name implies; swift, powerful, but clumsy. Their attack was centered in Brooks, while the Trojan machine pivoted about Holloway, who had replaced the injured Malette. California opened the struggle with a rush, carrying the ball to the Trojan thirty-yard line. Moseley intercepted a forward pass at this point and raced eighty yards to a touchdown. The Bears came back strong in the second quarter, Brooks scoring first for California. The Trojan backs retaliated when Husky Livernash added seven points to the Trojan score. Again Cali- fornia scored, but failed to convert. Once more Holloway directed his backs against the Bear ' s line. Then, changing his tactics, he sent a forty-yard heave to Murray, who completed the play, scoring after a brilliant run. By this time it was almost impossible to follow the ball in the darkness. Here it was that Coach Shaeffer again sent in Brooks, who, almost unaided, scored for California. Again the blue and gold men charged back only to be halted on the thirty-yard line. With 8000 pairs of eyes watching, Mont- gomery stepped back, and kicked the ball squarely between the posts. FOOTBALL Page 66 THE CROWD THE GAME Holloway Passes to Livernash FOOTBALL Page 67 THE BABES Freshman Squad on the liall Trojan spirit! Never was it demonstrated as at that moment. Five thousand supporters screamed encouragement to their warriors on the field. Eleven desperate wearers of the cardinal and gold responded. The line hurled itself like a catapult against the blue and gold defenders. Livernash charged desperately. Moseley and Murray fought like Trojans. Werner, Oertly and Marxen, were at their best. Adair, Curry, and Craig were scrapping for every inch of ground. Marshall and Fox were in the game, fighting as though life depended upon it. HoUoway ' s generalship was masterful, but pluck could not overcome the darkness. Thus the Varsity fought until the whistle rung down the curtain on the greatest football struggle ever played on a southern gridiron. Varsity- Although the climax of the season had been reached in the Whittier l° S ' 0 b ' ' ' ™bered California game, the Varsity laid over two weeks to meet the Whittier Poets in an exhibition game. Bogue, Chambers, and Bull Finch were the trio who spelled defeat for the Trojans. The one bright spot in the Varsity defense was Moose Werner. As a tribute to the remarkable work of Werner, let it be known that the University of Southern California is justly proud of her big end and representative on the all-state and all-southern teams. Freshmen playing through the season without a defeat, the Fresh- SeaSOn ™ carved their numerals high in the annals of football fame. Los Angeles High, Manual Arts, Long Beach High, and the Sherman Indians fell before the ' 19 aggregation in rapid succession. The Frosh goal line was crossed but once during the season while the Freshmen themselves amassed 77 points. The following men played through the season : Harmon, Burkett, Spear, Bush, Sigler, Dalin, Marshall, Whittemore, Liggett, Ramseyer, Nix, Curry, and Mallette.

Kelly, as in the preceding year, took the high hurdles from a field composed of the best athletes of the east. Owing to injuries sustained en route. Drew was unable to compete in either the 100-yard dash or the broad jump, both of which he had won the year before. The 1916 From the day the training quarters opened and Crippen, the Q freshman miler, jogged his way around the track until Beebe oCaSOn finished the last lap in the relay race of the A. A. U. meet, the track season was one of hopeful expectation — and that was all. Graduation, failure to return, and eligibility rules had scattered the great aggregation of stars of past seasons. Among the absentees were Kelly, world ' s champion high hurdler; Drew, greatest of the world ' s sprinters; Tipton, half-miler ; and Cookman and Hettinger, pole vaulters. However the new season witnessed the return of Dean Cromwell, whom U. S. C. was glad to welcome home again as its head coach. On looking over the new men, Cromwell and Captain Bradley declared the prospects bright for a real track team. Among those who reported for duty were Earl Thompson ' 19, hurdler and broad jumper; Clarence Beebe ' 18, former U. C. half-miler; Kendrick Johnson of Pacific coast fame in the 100 and 220 yard dashes; Reed Crippen ' 19 and Noel George ' 19, distance men and former Polytechnic team-mates; Hastings Bidwell ' 19, high and broad jumper; Mar- tin Miller ' 19, miler; Whittemore ' 19, hammer thrower; and Tracy ' 19, high jumper. Johnson and Beebe were barred from competition in regular meets because of the one year residence rule. March 4 brought the first meet of the season and an opportunity for the student body to look over Cromwell ' s proteges. As the score indicates, U. S. C. 85 9-10, L. A. A. C. 45 1-10, they acquitted themselves in good fashion and consequently Trojan hopes began to rise. In a retrospective glance we see those hopes were not unfounded.

This, together with the fact that the Trojans took ten first places, cleaned up all three places in four events, and more than their share of seconds and thirds, marked them a well-balanced team. Aside from the above mentioned facts the meet was not all that the dope led us to expect. The club team was woefully weak. Its main strength rested in Kelly, Bagnard and Gates. The much touted Tuffy Conn in the 440, and Bonnet in the 880 failed to appear. It is very doubtful, however, if these men could have altered the results materially. Bonnet would have had to conquer Beebe who has since covered the distance in 1 :56 4-5. Conn ' s chances in the 440 would have been better, but Long Horn Martin was there to be accounted for. In the 100 and CALIFORNIA MEET Bradley Wins the Century TRACK Page 72 220 yard dashes, Captain Bradley and Ken Johnson furnished all the competi- tion with Ken inches to the good. Crippen and Miller finished the mile in the order named, while the field events were safe in the hands of Whittemore, Smith, Livernash and Craig. VErsitV The University of California track team played havoc with r alifnrnia local championship aspirations in the annual Trojan-Bear meet on March 18. 85% -38% tells the story of the contest in which U. S. C. garnered 35 points in the races but was completely swamped in the field events. Captain Bill Bradley ' 11 and Earl Thomson ' 19 of the Trojan team, and Lockhardt of the opposing team were the main performers. Bradley took both sprints in a driving finish, with Murray ' 18 a close second in the century and a good third in the furlong. Thompson had an easy time in both hurdle events. Captain Preble of the Bears fell on the fourth hurdle in the high barrier event while Ganser ' 19 of U. S. C. was disqualified in the same race, third place going to Adair ' 19 of U. S. C. In the low hurdles Ganser ' 19 and Wilcox ' 19 finished second and third respectively, defeating Wolongiewitz of California, who fell on the last stretch. Lockhardt of the northerners won the shot put and broad jumfi. In the mile, Miller ' 19, taking the lead on the last turn, lost to Davis in a i)lanket finish. Crippen ' 19 experimented with the two-mile grind and, after leading the field, was ousprinted in the final hundred yards. Martin ' 17 and George ' 19 had to content themselves with third place in the 440 and 880 respectively. In the field events, Livernash ' 16 tallied one point in the shot put; Whittemore ' 19, one in the hammer; while Thomson ' 19 and Tracy ' 19 were among the five men who tied for second in the high jump.

The score was 78-44. When it is remem- bered that the U. S. C. point winners, with the exception of Captain Bradlex ' 16, Long Horn Martin ' 17, Livernash ' 16 and Homer Watson ' 17, were freshmen, it does not seem boastful to emphasize this day ' s work. Crippen ' 19 and Miller ' 19 began hostilities by taking the first two places in the mile. Yards to the good, Crippen obeyed a kindly impulse to wait for his team mate, only to have the judges interfere by giving Miller first place. Watson ' 17, after three years of work without much reward, suddenly came through and won the two-mile grind, hopelessly outclassing his opponents. Bradley ' 16 won both sprints, while Thomson ' 19 did likewise in the two barrier events. Noel George showed some real speed by capturing his favorite event in 2:T}i. Bidwell ' 19, Thomson ' 19, Tracy ' 19, and HoUoway ' 16, cleaned up 18 points in the high and broad jumps. Way out in the lead with his easy stride, Martin ' 17 broke the tape in the relay. . ., p, On March 29, the California Bears met a picked team of eight i ll Oldl southern athletes in practice meet. Kelly avenged his defeat 1 raCtlCC earlier in the season when he broke the tape ahead of Thom- JVleet son, and equalled his own world ' s record of 15 seconds. Kelh ' also won the century in easy style. Clarence Beebe, Dentistry ' 18, tore through the 880 in 1 :57 , winning over his former blue and gold team mates. Thompson ' 19 won the low hurdles with room to spare. Ken Johnson accounted for himself by taking first place in the 220 yard dash. A U_ World ' s records are not equalled every day, although such IV fppf performances are not unusual. But when Fred Thomson and Fred Kelly equalled the same record, on the same day, and in the same race, the A. A. U. meet of April 15 went down in red letters of athletic history. The two men breasted the tape together in 15 seconds flat in the 120 yard high hurdle race, each man having previously been credited with a 15 flat victory over the other earlier in the season. To round out the meet, Clarence Beebe ' 18 broke the tape in the 880 yard dash in 1 :56;J4. Considering the nature of Bovard track these performances stand out as re- markable. In addition to Kelly ' s aforementioned feat, he also won the 100 and 220 yard events, negotiating the former in lOys, and the latter around a curved track in 223 . Thompson tried the hop, step and jump as an experi- ment and carried home another gold medal. TRJCK Page 75 ® p S80-YARD RUN— A. A. U. MEET Beebe sets new Southern Record Surprises and upset dope featured the day. Smith ' 17 defeated Bagnard in the discus, while Whittemore ' 19 outheaved the L. A. A. C. star in the hammer throw. Superannuated Trojan athletes carried off five first places. Charle} ' Borgstrom won the pole vault for the fifth successive year. Borgie easily cleared the twelve-foot mark. Watkins came through with five points in the high jump, while Kelly carried off the other three firsts. The New The impossible has been done. The fifteen flat high T-fiirfllp Rerorrl hurdle record, often threatened by Kelly, Feg Murray, Simpson, and Thomson himself, was broken and will be heard of no more — 14.4 is the new watch-word. Earl Thomson ' 19, who had journeyed to Palo Alto with Fred Kelly to furnish competition for Murray and Norton in the Stanford tryouts, drew away from Kelly near the tape and finished a scant yard ahead of the former champion. Murray knocked down three hurdles in his efforts to finish ahead of Norton, and was thereby disqualified. Both Kelly and Thomson had been previously credited with a fifteen flat victory over the other, as well as with their fifteen second dead heat in the A. A. U. meet. In addition, the new champion won the special race staged between the two on April 22. This record leaves the 120-yard high hurdles title with the University of Southern California. Should Simpson ' s record made on the same day in the Missouri-Kansas meet be allowed, the two men will hold the title jointly as has been the case with the joint Kelly-Simpson-Thomson fifteen second record. TRACK Page 76 BLAKE WHITTEMORE CURRY MILLIKAN FERRAHIAN COUNTS MARXEN TRACY SCHMITZ HIRSH HOLLOWAY The 1916 Team - -v -:s ? BASEBALL Page 78 The Coach ' s ' ' he past season has demonstrated that a team can have Statement great players and play a real inside game, and yet lose. I think that this year ' s team played the best game any U. S. C. team has shown since I have been connected with college ball. They made no skull plays, and always knew what to do when they had the ball. The discipline on the club was good. I am appreciative of the fact that the boys gave absolutely no trouble in that regard, which they might have done because of the age of the coach. Three men, Holloway, Captain Counts and Hirsh played their last year with U. S. C. They deserve great credit for the faithful service given dur- ing the past three years. This year saw Holloway playing the best ball of his career. He was a real star. Hirsh was shifted to the outfield, where he played a fine game. His hitting was away above that of last year. Captain Counts was a real captain. Always working for the interests of his men ; making sacrifices to preserve harmony ; taking blame for things that should never have been credited to him, he has earned my respect and ad- miration as a captain and a man. Next year looks bright. Some men will be back who will prove stars. Eddie Marxen and Scow Curry will be headliners next year. Both men im- proved a hundred per cent this year. Tracy showed a lot of class in the box, as did Schmitz. Bidwell is a natural ball player. In fact, the men who are left are all good players, so good that the man who coaches U. S. C. next year ought to have a great team. It is useless to try to name all the players, and to attempt to give them proper credit and praise for their work. Pat Millikan, Baseball Coach. SAFE AT THIRD Hillman (U. S. C.) Covering the Base BASEBALL Page 79 Varsity March 10, the California Varsity played the first of r alifnrni ' a two-game series with U. S. C. on the home field. The game was a slugfest from start to finish. Bidwell started in the box for U. S. C, but stepped into trouble in the first inning by walking three men. Two hits were instrumental in scoring three runs and placing the Bears out in front with a flying start. The Varsity came back in its half of the first, and after Thomas and Holloway had been given passes, Hillman cleared the bases with a mighty home run clout over the centerfield fence. Bidwell, who was having his off-day, weakened again in the third. Four runs prompted Coach Millikan to send Peckham into the fray to relieve Bid- well. Jimmie was buried by an avalanche of hits in the sixth, and was sub- sequently relieved by Captain Counts who held his opponents scoreless dur- ing the remaining two innings. The final score was 12-3 in favor of the visi- tors, California gathering as many hits as runs, while U. S. C. hammered out a total of ten base hits. Second Saturday, March 1 1 , was candy day for the U. S. C. Rear C amP ' ' ' ' team. The Chocolate Shops of Los Angeles had donated a great fifty-pound box of candy to be given to the winner of the second game of the series. Tracy and Whittemore, who were selected as the battery for the Varsity, come through in fine style. U. S. C. A.B. R. B.H. P.O. A.

Thomas walked the first inning and Holloway clouted the ball on a bee-line to the left field fence. Thomas scored and Holloway drew up at third. Slugging Dick Hillman singled Holloway in. The next two U. S. C. runs were made in the fifth inning when Hillman singled and scored on Curry ' s double over the center-field fence. Curry was sent home by another double over the same fence by Whittemore. Bidwell scored the last U. S. C. tally when he doubled and scored on Tracy ' s single. Northern The northern trip, taken during the spring vacation, was np • disastrous, as far as winning games was concerned. The team was handicapped by poor pitching — not poor in the sense that the pitchers had nothing, but they lacked control. Two very close games were played with the California Varsity, games in which the results were uncertain until the last man was out. Counts worked most of the first game, and Schmitz finished up. Cad had everything ; his curve ball was unhittable, and his fast one was breaking like a whip. But he lacked control, and that kept in him in trouble all the way. Schmitz went in in the seventh inning with three on bases and none out. He should have been credited with saving the game, but an unfortunate error destroyed all chances for an easy double play.

The morning of the game, the star Varsity infield was missing. With a makeshift infield, Coach Millikan playing second base, Short Thomas at short, Hirsh on third, and Whittemore at first, the out- look seemed bad. Before three innings had passed, the combination proved its success. Indeed, every man on the team played good ball. They had the confidence born of desperation. Millikan came through with two long hits. Shorty Thomas, Hirsh, Marxen, Blake, Whittemore, Bidwell, Captain Counts, who was playing a wonderful game in right field, and Tracy, who held the freshmen without a hit for seven innings — all were playing un- beatable baseball. Many games have been won by simply fighting, but never was there a better example of what a real fighting spirit can do than in this game. The final score was 15 to 3. HIRSH IN THE RIGHT FIELD BASEBALL Page 82 BASKE BALL AMP8ELU0 The cannot be said with any degree of accuracy that the Varsity Season ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' 11 t f experienced a successful season, if we measure success by the number of games won. Coach Glaze and Captain Sprotte worked under difficulties. With but two veterans on hand at the beginning of the season, practically a new quintet had to be developed from the new men who reported for practice. The Varsity opened the season in whirl- wind fashion, defeating such teams as the Los Angeles Normals, Whittier Crescents, Los Angeles Athletic Club, Westlake Normals and Azusa Athletic Club. Then the losing streak began. Although the team fought out every contest, they lost games to Whittier College, Whittier Crescents, Glendale Athletic Club, Orange Athletic Club, Y. M. C. A., and Westlake Normal, several of which teams had been easily defea ted in the early part of the year. At the close of the season, Clifford Hen- derson, freshman guard, was chosen to lead the 1917 Varsity. The following men won their black S. C. ' s: Bill Sprotte, Ed McCormick, Lock Livernash, Cliff Henderson, Clint New- land, John Sigler and Skull Harmon. With but one member of the team in the bill sprotte, captain graduating class, prospects seem excellent for MINOR ATHLETICS Page 84 IQ17. Plans are being arranged to make basketball a major sport, and to secure contests with the northern colleges. It is believed that this action will very materially increase student support. The Bill Sprotte, captain of the 1916 basketball team, has been a A Tpj-. Trojan as long as the requirements permit. A catcher on the basketball team during his freshman year, he turned his attention to football during the next two years. While a junior, he took up basketball with such success that he was chosen captain. Sprotte ' s weight is 175 pounds. Cliff Henderson, who will succeed as captain, has the unique distinction of being the first U. S. C. freshman ever elected for the basketball captaincy. Henderson ' s position is guard, at which place he played for two years with the strong Manual Arts team. Cliff was always in the game. He weighs 137 pounds. Big Johnny Sigler, another freshman, entered college with an enviable record as all-city interscholastic guard. Sigler has proved himself a for- midable player. He weighs 182 pounds. Skull Harmon, still another of the five freshmen on the team, played a consistent game. His weight is 155 pounds. Ed McCormick, freshman forward, has proved his ability with the basketball as well as with the racquet. He weighs 165 pounds. Clint Newland and Lock Livernash played together on the strong Huntington Beach team which won the state title two years ago. The former has twice won his monogram, while the latter played with the California freshmen last season. Newland weighs 175 pounds and Livernash 155 pounds. SIGI.ER MCCORMICK SPROTTE NEWLAND HARMON HENDERSON MINOR ATHLETICS Page 85 Varsity winning all three of the matches played with the Uni- r ilifnrnia versity of California racquet team, the Trojans auspiciously opened the regular 1916 season on March 18. In the single matches, Eugene Warren won easily by the score 6-4, 6-2 ; while McCormick won from Clark in straight sets 7-5, 6-1. In the doubles, Warren and Mc- Cormick won the first two sets in whirlwind fashion, but lost the third and fourth. In the last and deciding set, the Bears were twice within one point of set, match, but were unable to break through with the winning point. The match was wo n by U. S. C. 6-1, 4-6, 3-6, 7-5.

C. was unable to cope with the speed of Groven, and lost 6-2, 6-3. In the doubles, Warren and McCormick bested Lipp- man and Rogyer 7-5, 3-6, 6-3; while Godshall and Stannard were defeated by Graven and Peterson 6-3, 6-3. Qjoj Five state championships, fou r- Tournament ' ' ' ' ' cups, two tennis racquets and a championship banner were among the honors brought home from the Ojai Tournament, held at Nordhoff, April 12-15, by the U. S. C. tennis stars, Eugene Warren, Edwin McCormick, Jessie Grieve and Frances Beveridge. Warren and McCormick won the California State Intercollegiate doubles championship, defeating Hahn and Barber, the crack Stanford pair, in the final round. Warren and McCormick also won the California State open-to-all-comers doubles cham- pionship. Ed McCormick, playing with Mrs. Ethel Sutton Bruce, won the State All Comers ' Mixed doubles event. In the Men ' s Intercollegiate singles, after defeating Hager of Pomona, Lip- man of California and Barber of Stanford, Warren last in the final round to Hahn of Stanford, the Pacific Coast title-holder, in a hard fought match. Robert Nathan, Jr., and Gerald Ritchie were other U. S. C. tennis devotees who competed in the open events. The following are the score results of the Trojan matches: Men ' s Inter- collegiate singles — Hahn (Stanford) defeated McCormick (U. S. C. ), 6-0. Warren (U. S.

Their victory was an overwhelm- ing one. 1916 Three members of the 1915 team held their places, and by the Cp„„„.-. process of elimination, a fourth member was soon found who worked her way to second, making the 1916 line-up as follows: Jessie Grieve ' 17, captain; Frances Beveridge ' 19; Gladys Cone ' 16, and Nellita Schlotte ' 18. The twenty-first annual spring Ojai Valley tennis tournament included intercollegiate contests, for the first time, in ladies ' singles and doubles. The MINOR. 4THLETICS Page S9 entries were limited to two players from each college so only the first two members of the team wore the varsity colors. In the singles, Frances Beveridge and Jessie Grieve each won their way to the finals where the latter defeated her team mate in straight sets 7-5, 6-4, so winning the all-California inter- collegiate ladies ' championship. A summary of the games follow: Miss Beveridge (U. S. C.) defeated Miss Highland (U. C.) 3-6, 8-6, 7-5. Miss Grieve (U. S. C.) defeated Miss Baker (Mills College), 6-4, default. Miss Grieve defeated Miss Arendt (U. C), 7-5, 6-4. Miss Beveridge defeated Miss Ford (Mills College), 7-5, 6-4. Miss Grieve de- feated Miss Beveridge 6-4, 7-5. The intercollegiate ladies ' doubles championship of the state was also won by U. S. C. Misses Bever- idge and Grieve won from Pomona and California teams, and in the finals from the Misses Ford and Baker of Mills College by the score of 6-3, 7-5. Intercollegiate tournaments are being planned with Pomona and Occidental Colleges. Girls ' Basketball Girls ' basketball is carried on under the auspices of the Associ- ated Women Students, but is also credited as outdoor gymnasium by the physical edu- cation department. This year a number of inter- class contests were staged. The greatest interest, however, centered around the freshman-sophomore game of January 20, when the freshies won by a score of 6-5. Track afternoon of April 26, the annual track meet for women IV Tppf was held under the auspices of the Associated Women Students. Although a comparatively small number of contestants entered for the different events, several of these did very good work. Nellita Schlotte ' 18 made the highest number of individual points, 34. Isabel McEuen ' 18 was second with 16 points. As no contestants were entered by the upper classes, the struggle lay between the freshies and sophomores, the final score being 54 to 17 in favor of the latter. Following the meet, the athletes were treated to cooling refreshments by the Associated Women Students and ribbons were awarded to all those who placed in the different events.

The clouds, reluctant, seem to break away, To let the sun bathe once again the parting day. ' T seems strange that strife should thus be seen, Twix elements of nature, sun and rain ; But all about, by ever) ' vision keen. Such discord is in everything discerned. For what concerneth nature, also man ; See how ambitious, aims, ideals, are but attained By constant struggle — yea, even constant strife. If any to a loftier plane would rise. And when will compensation come. To those who conquer massive obstacles ? Oh happy mortal, if at close of life ' s dark storm, The clouds shall backward roll, and leave the sun To cheer thy fleeting presence for an interval.

If any of you have witnessed the corraling of a great herd you will recall that the lasso is the chief weapon of the cowboy. When most of the lear- eyed beasts shift nervously in the pen there still remains some of the inately wild that baffle all efforts of a determined chase. To subdue these leaders, the rope should be thrown by skilled artists of the plain. These we are not, and as a result, a few of the herd have been cut by the tangling coils and others are still free. Yet we have roped in most of the obstreperous critters in each of the herds that roam over our Campus. If we have not corralled all, those that are still at liberty may gore the earth and paw the dust, fit victims for our successors. But our chief desire is that when the round-up is over and the dust has re- settled on the plain, the sting of THE LASSO shall be forgotten and the stamp of the branding iron shall be healed; but if it is not so, forgive the punchers and console yourself with the reflection that it is better to be roped and branded than never to be roped at all. REASONS FOR READING THE LASSO 1. It is written, compiled, created, assembled and renovated by US. 2. It is a fearless x-ray exposure of conditions as they exist. 3. The Censor read it and is still living. 4. Same as (1). 5. It is interesting, improving and educational. 6. There is no study in or out of the Curriculum that broadens the vision, creates so many nightmares, and intensifies the sympathies like the uninter- rupted application of your undivided attention to something so plainly worth while. 7. Same as (4). Josh Board iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii THE LASSO Page 20S SOME JUNIORS WHERE ARE THE OTHERS ? THE TWO PREXIES THE CALL OF THE WILD GOOD MORNING, GERTRUDE SOME senior! FIDO IS A HOT DOG TWO HICS ? The Alpha In the beginning were the heavens and the Freshmen created. And the Freshmen were without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the Freshmen. And the spirit of U. S. C. dawned upon the minds of the Freshmen. And Prexy said, Let there be Hght; and the Juniors appeared. And Prexy saw the Jimiors, and be- hold they were very good. And Prexy divided the Juniors from the Seniors. And Prexy called the Juniors Bril- liant and the Seniors he called Bone- heads. And the evening and the morning were the first day. And Prexy said, Let there be a bat- tle in the midst of the gridiron. And let it divide the Freshmen from the Sophomores. And Prexy called the battle and he divided the Freshmen who were many from the Sophomores who were mighty; and it was so. And Prexy called the fight a Push Ball contest. And the evening and the morning was an awful day. And Prexy said. Let the Freshmen be gathered together unto one place and let the Sophomores appear; and it was so. And Prexy called the Juniors to referee the contest and placed them as masters of the day for Prexy knew they were strong and mighty. And Prexy said, Let the Freshmen show some pep and the Sophomores show some jazz. And let the Fresh- men break their backs and the Sopho- mores break their necks. And let the battle bring forth blood and let every Freshman take after his kind and every Sophomore take after his kind; and it was so. And Prexy saw the battle and it was great. And there was wailing and gnashing of teeth for the evening and the morn- ing made the Freshmen victors. And Prexy saw great whales like Beasley and winged fowls like Maude Pedgrift. And he saw that they were very poor. And Prexy said. Let their heads be plunged in the duck pond and let the bubbles multiply around their necks, and it was so. Thus were the heavens and the Freshmen finished and all the hosts of them. And the next day we all rested and were content with what had been done.

Lasso Detective Unearths Ident- ity of Mysterious Miss Minnie Mang Ming Libelous Literature Discov- ered on the Culprit ' s Person The identity of the mysterious Miss Minnie Mang Ming, musician, authoress and comedian, has been revealed. After seven months of desperate and fruitless investigation. El Rodeo detec- tive has at last succeeded in unraveling the clew which has resulted in the discov- ery of this elusive female staff member of the Southern California Trojan. Good for him! The Ming woman was lassoed while boarding a University car, and her iden- tity ascertained by the signed article which was found tied with her car-fare in the corner of an embroidered handker- chief. The following article, which was taken from the so-called Minnie Ming, is printed herewrith for the first time in any publication. Shucks, it was easy. Dear Mr. El Rodeo: Do you remember Eddie? Anyway he ' s my friend (maby he ' ll be a rela- tive some day), well — you know he is a Sophomore. I ' m only a Freshman. Professor Bovard said Eddie was an apt pupil. I guess he meant apt to flunk. Good for him; because now I can catch up to his class. Eddie said they had lots of exams in his classes. So he just studies hard and then rents the seats around him. He charges highest for the nearest seat. When Eddie don ' t know the answers he puts see text, please, for answer. But you see, some teachers don ' t have text books. I guess that ' s why he is apt to flunk. I ' m glad the term is nearly over. You see, I live about three blocks away from school and I have to get up so early. So to be sure to get there on time I have two alarm clocks. One I set for five o ' clock; this wakes me up so that I can set the other for seven. Now I am never late to my classes. I like baseball better than sewing because I understand it better. All the boys on our team have wide stripes around their stockings. Eddie said they were for the same reason that THE LASSO Page 212 farmers put white paint stripes around orange tree trunks; so that bugs can ' t crawl up ' em. I think one man tried to make a goal by pushing another down in the last game I saw. I heard the umpire say one down, then he told one fellow strike, but he didn ' t do it. The umpire knew ' em all pretty well because he kept waving at them over his shoulder. I should think they would have more than one ball for all those boys, wouldn ' t you? Not very good for them. Well — I have to do my knitting now. And, since I can ' t knit and write at the same time, I ' ll have to close. P. S. — Eddie and I went to the movies last night. They weren ' t very clear and I got ear-esipolus trying to listen to ' em. Hoping you are the same. Confectionarly, MINNIE MING.

COOKMAN Biggest Knocker— MacINTYRE Biggest Booster — G. PENTLAND Freshest Freshman— R. CHICK Jolliest Junior G. KALLIWODA Prettiest Co-ed CORINNE BURNS The Lasso election was held March 24 without any real pugilistic displays. Many tried hard to get a place on the ballot, and most of them succeeded. There were some, however, who, in spite of threats and promises, could marshal no supporters. For example, Mr. Fish laughed long and hard, only to be rewarded with two votes as Jolliest Junior. Zemula Pope had to content herself with only one vote for Freshest Freshman. The recorder said this was her own. The fight of the day, however, was waged for the position of Biggest Knocker. Mr. Geissinger knocked hard, but owing to the fact that The Trojan had carried on its campaign throughout the year, Geissinger was defeated, and now has to be conten ted knocking himself about the campus. THE LASSO Page 2U Another contest worthy of mention was carried on by Walter Spaeth against a large field of competitors. He won out largely because he induced many a girl to vote for him with her only alternative that of voting for herself. Some of the girls tried to get other girls ' votes, but it was impossible. Each girl must have her own way in such delicate matters. Hence it was due to the vote of the boys that Miss Snowden and Miss Burns captured any votes for their neck and neck affair. How Mr. Chapman ever succeeded in gathering any votes for the position of Biggest Booster against such a strong opponent puzzles the most seasoned political interpreters. It just goes to prove the words of Lincoln, You can fool some of the people some of the time. The Lasso wishes to endorse all those elected, and assures the public that each will fill his place in keeping with the duties of his high office.

HOME. 1 POR OT My StATSy PENC 11 Contributions From Our Readers Reminiscences of the Concert Tour of the Girls ' Glee Club By One of Them AT RIALTO — Singing on an empty stomach, and changing costumes in a vacant store is great sport. They remembered us because Emma Smith got stuck in the scenery, and because Corinne Burns walked out and left her shoe on the stage. Our friend Rita Gould has a lasting memory of the front row, third seat to the right. Husband and wife sat together, content in the joy of being together, looking deep into each other ' s eyes. Suddenly Rita flashed one of her stock smiles at him and he responded as to an electric shock. The Perils of Poor Pauline weren ' t in it with his perils when wifey saw him. Complete under- standing between them was gone. SHERMAN INDIANS— We sang Little Papoose to them. They know good music when they hear it, and they surely liked us. BOUND FOR IMPERIAL VALLEY— We weren ' t traveling men— that is the thing that made the hit. EL CENTRO! EL CENTRO! — Suitcase in hand we waited in line to descend. Gertrude Pentland — I believe I ' m stepping on something. Why, its a man ' s foot. The man with the foot — Oh don ' t let a little thing like that worry you! AT BARBARA WORTH HOTEL — The morning after- Jessie, oh Jessie, get up, and come out on the roof and see the sunrise. They say it is wonder- ful. Are you coming? No — I ' m — too — nearsighted. Say what do you suppose — Mary forgot her curlers and Billie forgot to say goodbye to Linton. THE LASSO Page 224 AFTER THE CONCERT, one o ' clock— Grouch across the hall opened his door and called, Cut out that noise! What do you think this is? Edna Sed- week, ever sweet, replied — Why this is college spirit. Well bottle it up then, and take it back where it came from — we don ' t appreciate it here. One of the colored waiters at the hotel proudly declared he was a U. S. C. Alma Mater. The next day one of the girls tipped him a nickel. The old U. S. C. spirit rose within him, his loyalty asserted itself. Miss you will shore have good service from now on. AT HOLTVILLE— George Benson, a loyal U. S. C. graduate, stood alone as we sang our good old Alma Mater. Loud cheers went up; papers flew at him; hats were thrown, but he stood his ground until we were through. Little did they know the significance of what he did but we did. Our smiles were for him alone. Wake up people! School spirit is not dead! A Worm ' s Eye View of Himself (Printed by Request) FROM S. C. TROJAN I ' m just a measly little worm that crawls along the ground. I have no toes, no ears, no nose; I never make a sound. A funny thing when I sit down, I sit all over me. Clear from the place my mouth begins, to my south extremity. You bet I ' ve got a high forehead, beginning by my eyes, Extending to my other end along my back and sides. My forehead ' s full of wrinkles so when I hike along the dirt I wriggle that old brow of mine and it sends me on with a spurt. The thing that troubles me most is this, where does my head extend? My theory (since I ' ve no neck), it goes to the other end. Imagine then the amount of brains that I must have in me; I haven ' t even room for bones for I ' m all head you see. No wonder I ' m so awfully smart, ' specially when I see a bird. Then I wriggle my old brow, the speed I obtain is absurd. I dive right in my little hole and laugh in that bird ' s eyes. For the wise worm always hikes before the early bird arrives. — F. B. S. COULD YOU IMAGINE 1. F. Marion whispering in Daisy ola ' s ear. 2. Professor Owen sober after telling his own joke. 3.

DAVIS KALLIWODA SILVER CHAMPION Graduates Second Semester .Fred Aden .Selena Silver .Helen Kalliwoda .George Beneoel .Ralph Davis OFFICERS First Semester Ralph Davis President Grace Champion Vice-president Mary Poggi Secretary George Benefiel Treasurer Ralph Goodwin Sergeant-at-Arms In the year 1910, a signal honor came to the University of Southern Cali- fornia from the State Board of Education. As a result, we find a flourishing and progressive Graduate School connected with the university today. It was then that the privilege of issuing the California High School Teachers ' Cer- tificate to qualified candidates was granted to the institution. Two hundred seventy-eight students have entered the Graduate Depart- ment since June, 1915. Of these one hundred twenty-six will secure their High School Teachers ' Certificate in June; the remaining number have either been taking supplementary studies or working for the Degree of Master of Arts which is the other chief objective in the school. Both in a business and social way the department has accomplished much by its organization. A new departure, this year, was taken in the establish- ment of a teachers ' bureau, whereby vacancies have been located in different High Schools of the state for members of the school.

MISS BEULAH WRIGHT Dean of College of Oratory The Question of Our Speech All life comes back to the question of our speech, the medium through which we communicate with each other; for all life comes back to the question of our relations with each. These relations are possible, are registered, are verily constituted, by our speech, and are successful in proportion as our speech is worthy of its human and social function ; is developed, delicate, flexible, rich — an adequate accomplished fact. . . . Of the degree in which a society is civilized, the vocal tone, the personal, social accent and sound of its intercourse, have always been held to give a direct reflection. That sound, that vocal form, the touchstone of manners, is the note, the representative note — representative of its having achieved civilization. Judged in this light, it may be frankly said, our civilization remains strikingly un- achieved. . . . No civilized body of men and women has ever left so vital an interest to run wild, to shift, as we may say, all for itself, to stumble and flounder, through mere adventure and accident in the common dust of life, to pick up a living, in fine, by the wayside and in the ditch. Henry James. ORATORY Page 264 HICKS WELCH KNECHT DON CARLOS Student Body OFFICERS President Mrs. Florence Don Carlos Vice-president Florence Hicks Secretary and Treasurer Marjorie Knecht Oratory Editor of EI Rodeo Esther Welch THE YEAR With the return of many of the old guard, the College of Oratory started the year 1915-1916 with its usual enthusiasm and energy. The enrollment vyas unusually large, and has since increased. Among the number are two worthy knights, Monsieurs Olson and Steck, upon whose broad shoulders fall the solemn duty of maintaining law and order at the study-hall round-table. Like- wise, the college boasts two new members in the faculty. Miss Eva Smith and Professor Jay L. Chesnutt. Oratory has contributed its usual share to the entertainment and benefits in the chapel. It is also proud of its representatives in the Junior play, Faye Hughes and Helenita Lieberg. The former carried the lead in the War God, and the latter played the main role in the Man of Destiny which preceded. The college is now reaping the benefit of Miss Wright ' s Eastern tour in de- lightful lectures and additional classes in the Art of Criticism. These last bid fair to be the greatest impetus toward achievement that she could have brought us. Not to forget the social side of life, we celebrated one of the early rains by an indoor picnic. Later in the year a tea was given to the graduating class. We feel justified in saying that no college in the University has more unity, more good-fellowship, or a greater desire to achieve.

OR A TOR Y Page 269 SCENE FROM CHARMING lEANDER Shakespeare Club The Shakespeare Drama Club, under the direction of Professor Jay L. Ches- nutt, has presented six plays this year, in very creditable manner. The plays selected varied in theme from sparkling comedy to heavy drama. A group of three plays, Modesty, by Paul Hervien; Piper ' s Pay, by Margaret Cameron, and The Rising of the Moon, by Lady Gregory, were presented about the middle of the first semester. Modesty is a clever little comedy turning on woman ' s love of flattery and man ' s appreciation of that weakness. The characters are amusingly contrasted — the attractive young woman who believes herself impenetrable to flattery, the blunt man who tells her frankly of her faults, and the other wise man who tells her gracefully of her virtues. Piper ' s Pay also holds up one of woman ' s foibles, the passion for the col- lection of souvenirs. Each character is well drawn — the young wife breaking into society, and her friends, the matter-of-fact bachelor girl, the frivolous bride, the self-assured society matron, a maid, a reporter and a detective. The Rising of the Moon is one of the best representatives of the Irish school in drama. All three plays present ample opportunity for variety of character-work and development of situation. ORATORY Page 270 Early in the second semester another program of plays was presented : a five- act comedy, The Twins, by Plautus; Pater Noster, by Francois Copee, and Charming Leander, by Theodore de Banville. These plays were trans- lations, the first from the Old Latin and the last two from the French. The Twins is an old five-act play upon which Shakespeare founded his Comedy of Errors. The men ' s parts were taken by girls in a ver)- acceptable manner. Pater Noster is an historical play of the period after the French Revolu- tion, when the communards were in revolt. The priest has been killed by the communards, while his sister, wrought almost to insanity by grief, has turned against God and man. Touched by an appeal from the cure, she for gives, and saves the life of one of her brother ' s murderers. In marked contrast to Pater Noster was the last number of the program, Charming Leander. The characters are Leander, a romantic young dream- er; a fussy old man, and his dainty daughter, Columbine. A spirit of whim- sical gaiety pervades every speech. Through affiliation with the Shakespeare Club, the students learn not only the fundamental principles of stage technique in acting, but also plan costumes, arrange stage settings and direct plays.

We would give due praise and commendation to one who has devoted years of his life to building up a musical department in connection with the Univer- sity. As Dean of the College of Music, Walter F. Skeele has guided it through its varied experiences with a steadfast devotion to high standards. The enviable position of the school in higher musical education should be attributed in great measure to the unfailing perseverence and splendid leadership of the present well-beloved Dean.

The school now occupies an ele- gant and commodious suite of rooms on the upper floor of the Mason Opera House building. A branch is also maintained at Anaheim. Its unusually strong faculty has held for years a notable standing in the musical circles of Southern California, and includes some of the most widely known teachers in the Southwest. The enrollment in all branches of musical instruction shows a marked in- crease over previous years. Besides creditable work in private lessons and classes, the school presents exceptional opportunities for the public appearance of its pupils. Recitals are held every two weeks, and each month a public con- cert is given at Symphony Hall, which is always attended by a large number of music lovers. The policy of the college has always been to make its instruc- tion practical, intending to develop and equip the musician for the practice of his profession. .• • MUSIC Page 276 Student Body OFFICERS President Catherine Lennox Vice-president Rita Gould Secretary Lucy Smith Treasurer and Assistant Manager of El Rodeo Mae Franklin Music Editor of El Rodeo Mildred Cannon There is a charm, a power that sways the breast, Bids every passion revel or be still; Inspires with rage, or all our care dissolves; Can soothe distraction, and almost despair: That power is Music. — Armstrong.

THE HIKING CLUB nwiims The College The College of Fine Arts, University of Southern California, owing to its peculiar conditions and associations, occupies a position unique among art schools. It was the first art school to organize its activities along strictly academic lines, and from very small beginnings it has grown into a large and exceed- ingly efficient system in the training of workers and teachers in all lines of fine art. The purpose of the school is not only to perfect the technique of painting, sculpture, and architecture and their subsidiary lines of work, teaching the eyes to see, the fingers to act and the mind to direct ; but also to build up the general culture which belongs to a college course, looking at art from every viewpoint, in all periods of its development; and to acquire the power to understand, to teach, to practice and to discuss intelligently and without prejudice every phase of art. The college buildings are exceedingly picturesque and the surroundings ideal in their beauty and convenience. The curriculum is very full, the pace is rapid, and the conditions of study are pleasant and stimulating. The advantage of the superb situation of the school buildings, easily access- ible from Pasadena and Los Angeles, in the midst of scenery inspiring in its beauty, variety and adaptability, the charm of its immediate surroundings, the liberty and inspiration of plenty of room and outdoor work are assets which will be appreciated by the earnest student. The art atmosphere and enthusiasm of this school form in themselves a stimulus which counts largely for success. The college buildings overlook the most beautiful section of the famous Arroyo Seco and the wide expanse of the San Gabriel Valley. From its corri- dors may be seen the whole range of the Sierra Madre Mountains ; vistas of live oak, pepper and eucalyptus trees lie in every direction ; within a stone ' s throw a perennial stream meanders through groves of sycamore and water beech. In this land of sunshine outdoor work is enjoyable the year ' round without interruption. Trips are made occasionally by the landscape class to the moun- tains, the beaches, or the nearer missions, all of which are within easy reach by trolley.

Meetings are held quite frequently, and after Professor Judson has judged the competitions, and all other serious business is attended to, it is gen- erally agreed that we give a party. We began with the hay-ride to Venice for the freshman class and their reciprocal courtesy to us in the form of an apron and overall party, and closed the semester with our Christmas dance and Valen- tine party. We are looking forward to many social events for the coming term, not the least of which is our annual banquet given by the undergraduates to the seniors. Our enthusiasm does not lessen, however, when it comes to work. This is shown by the interest taken in our bi-monthly competitions and in the illustra- tions for El Rodeo. If these latter had all been used this annual publication would have been transformed into a picture-book. Another new step in co-operation with the rest of the university was taken this year, when we elected a correspondent for the Trojan. For so small a student body, we furnish a great many items of interest, and could easily fur- nish a great many more, but hesitate on account of the rights of other depart- ments. The student teas, held every Friday afternoon, are also a new and popular feature. The visitor is greeted by student artists in black tams and ties. He is led through the mysteries of the clay room, where clay and plaster models repose on their stands ; then perhaps to the crafts room, with its array of copper and pottery. Other classes are in session where would-be geniuses are striving for inspiration. The walls of the rooms are lined with paintings of all descriptions — life, still life, landscape, posters and designs. As the visitor sips his tea the scent of flowers floats in through the open windows, and, above the hum of conversation, he can hear a distant strain of music.

Life in all its labors should never be so full of strenuosity as to cause us to neglect or forget the days of the past. We hope that our efforts in recording the things that have gone, all too quickly, in our past college life, will at some time in the future be the cause of memory reflection. We, the staff, beg of you, that the memories stirred will not be marred by any criticism so as to take away the joys of reflection. If we have inadvertently brought a touch of offense to anything written, may you remember that to err is human. Still if we can cause you to live again the joys and sor- rows of the past three college years, we feel we can easily bear any censure that may come our way. Our sincerest greetings are ex- tended to the faculty and student body. — The Editor. THOMAS W.

Advice is seldom sought by seniors, and still less followed, yet I venture to offer the following. Law is a jealous mistress. No man can serve two masters without cheating both. These, and other quotations, point out the value of single- ness of purpose. It is essential for a lawyer to have one goal in mind. Do not, however, be only a lawyer and nothing but a lawyer. Of all pitiful objects, the most pitiful is the lawyer who is obliged to leave his profession, and who, in following his profession, has lost touch with persons and objects of interest outside of his profession. One of the abiding memories of my student days was the sight of a former distinguished judge who, at the same hours each day, came out of the principal hotel of that university city and, always dressed the same, in both summer and winter, in a long overcoat, silk hat and with umbrella under arm, would walk across the street from the hotel to the capital park, thence down one walk north to a gate, then back to the starting point, thence east to a certain tree, then again to the hotel. This he did twice each day, rain or shine, and always alone. To me he was, in spite of his former success in his profession, the very embodiment of loneliness. He was, in his old age, out of touch with all activities of his time. His profession had so absorbed him that as his old friends died he created no new circle of friends. You must live in the world, be of the world, and move among its men. Therefore, have some interest — some hobby, if you will — outside of your pro- fession, something that will keep you in touch with at least a small circle of men and give you something to occupy your mind and time when obliged to drop from the circle of your profession. It matters but little what this interest may be. It may be some athletic activity, like golf or tennis or college ath- letics ; it may be gathering old books, or collecting antiques of some kind ; it may be church activities, or interest in social reforms. My suggestion is that you have some interest outside of your profession to which you may turn for recreation during your professional life, and to which you may look for enter- tainment after your time of active professional employment has ceased.

A senior is a modest creature, and as modesty forbids, we must not extol the virtues of our members too fully. Nevertheless justice demands, and we heed those demands, that some mention be made of some of our notables. Let us in all justice to ourselves note the fact that we have a Beau Brummel (Young) as well as a tramp ( ?), that we have witty (Coultras, Haynes and Hirsh) fellows as well as nuts ( ?), that we have handsome (Mattoon, Mor- ton and Morrow) fellows as well as monkeys (?), and other specimens too numerous to mention. We can debate and to attest that fact we point with pride to Morton, Haynes, Creutz, Mattoon, Horowitz, Daze, Cohen and Haslett. Verily a veritable army. As to those athletically inclined let us mention Holloway, Watkins, Hirsh, Counts, Haynes and Elmore. Let us not forget that a great number of our illustrious ones have by various, devious and sundry ways managed to pass over, around and underneath the bar, whichever way you wish to look at it. Politics has claimed and charmed us. Wayne Fisher, if you please, served as Freshmen President, Lynn Young held the reins during the Junior year and now Creutz sits on the throne. Morton is now Student Body President. We humbly wish to announce that we were there oratorically, athletically and politically — and furthermore we must state that our respected co-students, Collins and Morton, bid fair to shatter all scholarship marks ever hung up by any student leaving this college. Ere we forget let us extend to everyone with whom we have become ac- quainted and have labored, members of the faculty, officers of the school, Pat Millikan, and students our sincerest appreciation and thanks of the goodwill extended us. Memories of these acts will long remain, and at times of reflection and as the years speed on. Alma Mater will become all the dearer. LAW Page 304 LAWRENCE WINFIELD ALLEN. Los Angeles. University H.

As in the past years, the juniors have been the best class in the college. That goes almost without saying. On the baseball team we have Sammy Blake. Moral Support Peckham made the baseball squad. In debating, wherein we excel the most, we have Mark Herron, Cha nning FoUette, Clair Eberhard, Elmer Haslett, G. V. McPike and Seymour and Myron Silverstone. All three members of the debating team which defeated Columbia University were juniors. It takes brains to be a junior and it takes a junior to have brains. And beside these heroes, we have : The most popular student: M. A. Wd. (We refuse to give names. We might be oohed if we did.) Best known flunker: Joseph Franklin Eshleman, 304 East Spruce Street, Inglewood, California. The best student (very noteabuU ) : George Montgomery Breslin. Other attractions and detractions: Mount Baldy Heffron, Hootus Hertel, Phinoclade Modesti, and Little Wurm Fenimore. The last named student is a freshman but he longs to be a junior. His Rastus stories are worthy of a string bean. John Weston Grady has had a checkered career. Wherever he moves he gets jumped. Grady would be a senior if he wouldn ' t play checkers so much. He plays at least three games a day. Most noisy student; LeRoy Stone, San Pedro, California. Least noisy ditto: David Hill. President of the class: Punky Loewenthal. Favorite studies (compiled by Ervvin Peter Werner): (1) Real Prop- erty; (2) Water Rights; (3) Mining Law; (4) ?; (5) ?; (6) ?. We close this clever article with this question: Why does Lindsay K. Dickey sit next to Mrs. Crenshaw when there are plenty of other seats in the room? 1 ;;., LAW Page 326 DOYI.E ESHELMAN BLANCHE FAUCETT GAII, BROWN CARROWAY CAMERON HENSHEY BLAKE S.

She stopped at morn beside a mansion tall, And sprinkled green o ' er shrub and ivyed wall; And gave her rarest perfume to the rose, Which proudly shares with every breeze that blows. She sang of Life to the children of wealth, And stamped them all with the flush of health. To the click-i-tat of the saddler ' s rhyme She hummed a careless air of blossom time. The Goddess of Spring flew far on her wing that April day. And noon-time found her in the foothills green, Guarding the rest of the tillers who glean The needs of life from the bosom of earth. And temper the race with their sterling worth. She followed the track of the furrowed plow And scattered the haze over canon brow ; And laughed and smiled at the look of content That she brought and left wherever she went. The Goddess of Spring flew far on her wing that April day. She roamed where the sunset ' s sick shadow falls Across the dirt and gloom of fact ' ry walls. To wait the throng crushed by the greed of Might. They slip through smoke and dinge of cheerless night. She walks with the haggard, the weak, the slow; Nor sex nor age her presence seem to know. From healthless hovels of the night forlorn. Heartsick, she turns away. The rose — the thorn. The Goddess of Spring flew far on her wing that April night. Sh e flies across a world that slumb ' ring lies. To the home of the Hearts of Men, and cries — You mine your golden wealth from human clay And shorten the hours of your brothers ' stay ; Though age on age in countless number roll. All truth abides. A human life — a soul. This day demands you let your brothers know The life in the songs of my winds that blow. FRESHMEN VICTOR H.

In the ranks of the freshman this year are students who come from the eastern and middle west- ern part of the United States, from all points in California, from such uni- versities as Stanford, California and Santa Clara, and from the Philippine Islands, from Japan and from divers points. In October, after exciting campaigns and several very close contests, the freshmen elected their class officers. Victor H. Koenig was elected president; Miss Cecil Betz, vice-president ; Marvin Thomas, secretary-treasurer ; John F. Burton, executive committeeman ; George W. Fenimore, oratorical committee- man, and Frank Mallette, athletic committeeman. The next big event in our history was the freshman banquet, and even the jealous juniors and seniors have conceded this to be better than their freshman banquet; they probably basing their opinion upon the sight of so many beautiful girls accompanying the freshmen. The freshman debating team this year is composed of George W. Fenimore, P. G. Briney, G. V. McPike and L. W. Rucker. These four men won two simultaneous debates from Whittier College, one held at the College of Law and the other at Whittier. Fenimore also took second place in the University Peace Oratorical. Another forensic advancement of the freshmen was evidenced by the form- ing of a club for the purpose of cultivating and advancing the art of ex- temporaneous platform speaking. It is the Rialto Debating Club, composed only of prominent freshmen. Lloyd W. Nix, a College of Law freshman was elected captain of the university freshman football team this year; he also played fullback on the varsity football team. Frank Malette, another law freshman, was the star of the football season at quarterback for the varsity ; other freshmen on the varsity team were Clarence Fox at tackle, Eddie Marxen and T. W. Marks, guards. The freshman class supplied Marxen, catcher; Earl Schmitz and Hub Ferry, pitchers, for the baseball team. Ken Johnson, the wizard in the 100 and 220 dashes, was disqualified from competing for the university, and this star was unable to aid his college this year. Ralph Sindorf and Henri, ' Newell were tennis stars from the freshman class. The conclusion, therefore, must be, and history will teach us, that this freshman class will have a great future in the law school, and the members in the legal profession. LAW Page 332 Practice One of the College of Law ' s distinctive features is its practice C OUrf ' so-called moot court. Study and class instruction may be largely theoretical, but the moot court is practical. Wise heads have sought to forestall the sad lessons of bitter experience with this balm of Gilead. Theory and practice should go and do go hand in hand at the College of Law, U. S. C. Having a purpose, the moot court is fulfilling its mission ably and well, generaled and captained by Kemper B. Campbell and Chas. E. Millikan, and their able assistants, Herron, Lilley, Modesti, et al. From his freshman to his senior year, a student takes part in its various workings. With a spacious and admirably equipped office on the fifth floor of our building it issues summons and subpoenas, which cause all of us to feel more or less its potent influence. Briefly : The student acts as a witness the first year, in the various trials prepared on written statements of fact issued to the junior and senior students. On these facts the prospective lawyer must ascertain the wrong committed, the appropriate remedy and the procedure and means to attain that remedy. The pleadings must be filed and served in the same manner and form as though in actual practice. These papers are inspected by the presiding judge and if flagrant errors are noticeable they are returned to the student, who must amend before answer is filed. Before trial, briefs setting out testimony of the wit- nesses and authorities on the points of law involved must be filed with the LAIV Page 333 clerk. After trial and awarding of judgment, the winning party must file and prepare findings of fact, conclusions of law therefrom and the judgment. Then the losing party if he so desires may appeal the decision to the appellate court. Throughout the pleadings and trial, the rules governing the regular superior courts of the State of California are applied as far as possible. No student is allowed to practice in the practice court until he has served a required number of times as a witness, and then before admission he must take an examination admitting him to practice. This examination covers the preparation of pleadings and procedure as well as matters of trial. The plan of the practice court, like that of the college in general, is to send from its halls of learning, men who are skilled in their chosen profession. To say the least, that purpose has been accomplished to a marked degree, as is attested by the able conduct of cases by its graduates in the courts of this and other states. Practice court experience at the College of Law, U. S. C, is efficiency in the courts.

It has been in existence since April, 1912. The membership has increased from a few, comprising the charter members, until at the present time all of the women students are enrolled. On October 2, 1915, the mem - bers of the organization met at the College of Law for the first meeting of the season, at which time a number of the freshmen girls were initiated into the mysteries of the club. Among these were the Misses Copeland, Bulfinch, Betz, Amidon, Smith, Nielson, Veale, Love. The next meeting was held November 20 at Christopher ' s pink room, at which time a dainty luncheon was enjoyed by the members of the organization present. Numerous speeches were made regarding the welfare of the college. On the Saturday preceding Christmas the society again met at the College of Law ; this was in the nature of a Christmas party. Miss Ronan, in the charac- ter of St. Nicholas, was a huge success. Favors were exchanged, and games participated in made the occasion one to be remembered. April the eighth, 1916, was the time, and Sycamore Grove the place, where the association members met for their annual picnic. As the day was one of Southern California ' s best, there was naturally a large attendance. The com- mittee in selecting the site for the outing showed excellent judgment, as a more ideal place for such an affair would have been difficult to find, even among all the beautiful spots accessible.

From pledge day until initiation, the girls of the Phi Delta Delta Sorority entertained most lavishly the new members added to their number. The Stare Decisis society reporter has it that these various functions were the most en- joyable that it was possible to have. On pledge day when Miss Eleanor Mack entertained at tea the following girls were pledged: The Misses Bulfinch, Amidon, Leitch, Chelgrene and Veale. Charming and delightful was the verdict of the young ladies. Added to this charming afifair, the season discloses a delightfully appointed luncheon at the Sierra Madre Club given at high noon, when the Sorority welcomed as new co-eds the following: Misses Bulfinch, Amadon, Leitch, Chelgrene, V eale and Crenshaw. The following acted as hostesses: Mrs. Willebrandt, Mrs. Faulconer, Misses Woodhead, Hunley, Hibben, Costello. Grether, Doran and Danforth. Not content with this we must record in the season ' s happenings, a tea at Christopher ' s preceded by a theater party at the Orpheum ; and a picnic lun- cheon at the Casa La Roca Country Club in the Altadena foothills where the pledgees were entertained. The outstanding social event of the year and the one to be long remembered by Phi Delta Delta members was the initiation held at the Beverly Hills Hotel on March 25. From an authoritative source we are able to report to the delight of the students of the College of Law, that our Sorority members dis- tinguished themselves by the delightful manner in which they entertained their guests. The impression gained by the guests at the hotel bespeaks well for the reputation of our college among the social elite of Los Angeles and elsewhere. May the editor record just as successful a season in the years to come. • LAW Page 356 jfraternities Phi Delta Phi Beatty Chapter— Established 1907 FRATRES IN FACULTATE Gavin V. Craig F. L. A.

HAUN F. HAUN OLSON FERRY Debating ' TudffC Introducing to 30U our popular Wells ' ' ' f coach, Judge H. N. Wells. A student at our institution, a police judge at Covina, 1912 winner of the _ Alumni medal for scholarship, a member of ' our faculty, debate coach, and in his spare time a successful practicing attorney of this city, Judge Wells is loved and respected by the bar of this city, the alumni of U. S. C. Law, of which he is president, the faculty, the students and the girls of the law school. And there is a reason. Never has he been heard to say a word of reproach to a defeated debater. Many a time he has unmercifully bawled out one of his victorious men, who failed to give the best he was capable of. He is a born coach, with a quick brain, a stout heart, honest strategy, an ability to work his men. A big man, big in every sense of the word, big in stature, big in ability, big in character, big in heart — so big that he ' ll never be forgotten. God keep the judge.? So say we all of us. DEBATING SCHEDULE U. S. C. Law (first-year men) vs. Whittier College Feb. 25, 1916 At Los Angeles and Whittier. (Simultaneous debate.) U. S. C. Law VS.

Huge debaters, Trvniits bante debaters, thin debaters , sawed-off debaters, near debaters, and would-be debaters — in short the gang was all there. Thirty strong they invaded the assembly hall of the College of Law on January 12, 1916, to show their qualifications for places on the varsity debating team. And Judge Wells, our popular little debating coach, after listening to the customary, stereotyped steam, drolly remarked, I wouldn ' t have believed that there were so many ' cowboys ' in this school. The question supposed to be debated was, Resolved that increased indus- trial development should precede an increase in military and naval prepara- tion. The first night twelve entrants, figuratively speaking, hit the dust, eighteen remaining to face the terrors of another ordeal. Six of these suc- cumbed on the second night, leaving the following men to compose this year ' s squad : Fred Briney, Ben C. Cohen, Gregory M. Creutz, Claire Eberhard, Channing Follette, Elmer R. Haslett, John C. Haynes, Mark L. Herron, Fred Horowitz, Harold C. Morton and Myron and Seymour Silverstone. The debaters were evenly matched, and the judges, Thomas Berkebile, Esq., and J. A. Visel, found it hard sailing to decide who ' s who. Of course, all were satisfied with the final selections of the judges, even though they them- selves were not chosen for the teams. Congratulations, of course, were in order, and as usual the I told you so, the you were marvelous, and the I knew you ' d make it, disturbed the atmospheric pressure. Finally the curfew rang, the lights went out, the mutual admiration terminated, and the debaters and their admirers left for parts unknown. Whittier preliminary to the opening of the varsity debating season, DehatPS Judge Hugh Neal Wells and his four freshmen debaters enter- tained Whittier ' s first year team with a surprise party on the evening of February 25. Tired of his accustomed kindness and generosity. Coach Wells had given his men instructions to hog it all. They did so with the satisfactory result that precedent was shattered and the Quakers bowed twice in humble submission before the prowess of U. S. C. Law. The audience which comfortably filled the assembly hall of the College of Law thoroughly enjoyed the discussion of the question: Resolved, that im- port duties should be imposed not by Congress but by a Federal Commission. The judges, Supervisor Frank Woodley, Meyer Lissner and A. J. Copp, Jr., decided unanimously that the law representatives, George W. Fenimore and L. W. Rucker, arguing the affirmative, severely humbled Donald Story and Arthur Camp of Whittier. The debate here was ably presided over by Justice Summerfield. Page 369 HOROWITZ FOLLETTE MORTON HAYNES M. SILVERSTONE CREUTZ S. SILVERSTONE HERRON At Whittier, G. V. McPike and Fred Briney, arguing the negative for U. S. C, demonstrated to the gentlemen of Whittier, Robert Brokavv and Earl Murray, that a tariff commission should not be adopted, and the judges handed U. S. C. a 2-1 decision. The work of the law debaters, three of whom had never before participated in any public speaking contest, was especially worthy of hearty commendation. The least that can be said is that their victory was honestly earned, through good brain work and industn, ' . With a varsity line-up of experienced men, a coach who knows all the re- quirements that modern debating demands in order to produce successful de- baters, the future is unusually bright. The Forensic Debating. No other student activity brings such fame Se ison ' ' prestige to the College of Law as does this popular indoor sport. And in all modesty Law produces some wonderful teams. In the last two years we have won nine out of twelve debates. Never has Law lost a 3-0 debate, showing that we have never been decisively beaten in the estimation of the judges. What accounts for this success! First, law school spirit; second, a system; third, debaters, and last, a big coach. No one of our debaters is head and shoulders above the rest; no one man is the shining light. Twelve men compose our squad and they are all num- ber one along their respective lines. Some are better on one subject than on another ; some are better in constructive work than rebuttal, some are better as first speakers than as second and third speakers — but they are all talented along some particular line and it doesn ' t take Judge Wells long to find out what that particular line is. So whether a man is a member of the team that meets Columbia, or a member of any other team, he is where he will do the most for U. S. C. Law. A debater is as a rule one of the most unselfish of men. He works hard, he thinks hard, he trains hard — not primarily for himself, but for his school. He does not get the fame, he does not receive the admiration given to the athlete — he does not ask for nor does he desire it. And now for a resume of the season. After defeating Whittier on both ends of a simultaneous debate the varsity season was opened with Arizona as the contender. Myron W. Silverstone and Claire Eberhard, arguing against President Wilson ' s preparedness program were defeated by Fred Fickett and J. Preston Jones by a decision of 2-1. The law debaters were felt by many to be head and shoulders above Arizona ' s representatives, but their unpopular side of the question, coupled with the uncertainty of debating, lost for them. Judge Wells after this debate said, Two of next year ' s strongest men were made that night. Page 371 John C. Haynes and Fred Handsome Horowitz, two men who have never tasted defeat, went to Denver and showed Daniel Wolf and John Palmer that the literacy test was a poor proposition, and the judges unani- mously agreed that it was. We didn ' t hear that debate, but several Denver students plan to come to U. S. C. Law next year. Johnny graduates this year and plans to go east. We lose a good man — a white man, through and through. Fred needs no introduction. He defeated Denver last year, too — they want to know how many more we ' ve got like him. Elmer Haslett and Ben Cohen, our secretary-treasurer, argued the initiative and the referendum with Will Long and Alvin Baird, the Montana gentle- men, and gracefully took a two to one defeat. If there ever was a debate which we won, we thought that was it, but the judges had the official say. We lose Ben by graduation, but with his moral support and Elmer ' s retributive spirit aroused — well, look out next year. Long. And finally, on April 14, Columbia agreed that the West wasn ' t such a wilderness after all, and the judges saw it in the same light, holding that U. S. C. ' s fighting juniors, Seymour Silverstone, Mark L. Herron and Chan- ning FoUette, had whipped our eastern friends, James W. Danahy, Douglas Black and Edward M. Earle, 3-0. Our men, upholding the affirmative side of Preparedness, were there with the fight and something else. All of these men will be here next year, and they have never been defeated in a varsity debate. On April 29, Harold C. Morton, student body president, and Gregory Creutz, president of the senior class, invaded New Mexico and demonstrated to Villa ' s proteges, that we should not have a trade commission to regulate trusts. Well, I ' m through! The College of Law debating team will be out with bells on next year. And whipser it softly, perhaps there will be a co-ed debate with the girl Portias from Harvard next year. Judge Wells is aching to coach such a debate. We ' ll not only be there. Judge — but how much are first row seats? _ . . A NEW and already thriving debating society has been added iN-ldUO fQ fj g L School in the last semester. It resulted from the Debating urgent need of an organization for the promotion and develop- l.-U. ment of impromptu speakers, which is the primary object of the organization. The Rialto has a limited membership for the purpose of securing only those students who are enthusiastically inter- ested in extemporaneous work. The following officers have served during the past semester: Leo Freund, President; Girard F. Baker, Vice-president; H. Meyer Linneman, Secretary ; W. H. Devereaux, Treasurer. LAW Page 372 Baseball Again Law School at the hehn. Consequentl ' Dean Porter becomes once more a Big League Magnate and one of the powers that be. Accordingly like the man of foresight and intuition that he is, he chose and placed one Pat Millikan at the helm. No mistake was made in the choice for Pat is a favorite with the fellows and therefore able to get the most out of them. Not a grumble and the fellows worked. Having been a student and a law baseball man once himself, he had the respect of the follows from the start. Although the season was not as successful as it might have been, nothing but praise could be bestowed upon the fellows, for they gave all that was in them, and fought at all times against hard luck and the breaks of the game. Breaking even with the Bears here in the south, they invaded the Northern lairs of that animal only to meet some of the queerest breaks of the game any team has encountered. There they won one out of three. From there they essayed with true Trojan spirit to meet the Cardinals at Palo Alto. Still pursued by old man Jinx they again suffered defeat. In spite of these de- feats we maintain that we have the best college team in the state, with the best coach at its head. -ATE PORTER LA IV Page 374 Ladies and Gentlemen: Introducing Coach Pat Millikan. Loyal mem- ber of S. C, he is giving the best years to his Alma Mater, because of the esteem in which he holds it. Hard working, conscientious, a good commander and respected, he swears by his men and they stand and swear by him. Here ' s to vou Pat ! PAT MILLIKAN Girls look again, yes, ' tis none other than Cad Counts. Watch him smile — a smile that stayed there in spite of defeat, and that is why the fellows worked by and with their captain. Pitcher, lawyer and captain, he played the game with a steady, clear thinking head ; respected off and feared upon the field. We shall miss him not only as player, but student as well. CAD COUNTS LAW Page 375 To leave baseball without a mention of those who have for three years fought and upheld the fair name of our Alma Mater would be far amiss. Therefore, let us for a moment consider none other than the genial Harry Hirsh. For three years he has played a stellar game at third, a finished fielder and a consistent hitter, he has made the varsity infield a finished machine. Next year ' s coach has a hard and knotty problem to fill his place.

LEAVES FROM THE NON COMPOS MENTIS REPORTS (Civil No. 68 ' ! — March Term) GUN CLUB vs. FRANK M. PORTER, Appellant. Petition for writ of injunction. Facts are stated in the opinion of the court. Appellant in propria persona. Gibbs, Lowenthal and DeCoudres for respondent. Millikan, J., Plaintiff, asks that a restraining order be issued against defend- ant, permantly restraining him from falling in its mud. It appears that said F. M. Porter, was hunting on plaintiff ' s rain-soaked and ploughed up grounds, when he saw a duck. This court takes notice of the fact that the Dean gets as excited when he sees a duck, as a college youth does when he sees a chicken. Anyway it was fowl play. Upon seeing the bird the Dean took a shot, listed to port and fell headlong into the mud, said mud being ideal. The duck, ducked the shot but ducked the Dean. The Dean arose, his head covered with terra firma, and sought to escape but the evidence was against him. Plaintiff alleges that the mud is irreparably injured by defendant falling in same, because of his weight of mind, and that the shimmering loveliness of a sea of mud is marred, because said instructor of personal property has not as yet been reduced to ashes or mud, and is thereby not subject to the law of fixtures. Appellant maintains that the writ should not be issued because said issuance depends or hinges upon the question whether, he was ducked by the duck, or he ducked himself in trying to get the duck. If the latter position is to be maintained the bird would have a bill against defendant, and if the former is the position the defendant stands on we must say that it is insecure as he has already fallen once. This case must be remanded and a new trial ordered as there is no evidence as to whether or not the Dean was bailed out. It would be well for the trial court to find whether or not the duck ducked the Dean or the Dean ducked himself in trying to get the duck, or the duck, ducking the shot caused the Dean to be ducked. Reversed. DUNN, BLAKE, GLASS vs. JUNIOR CLASS Attorneys for plaintiffs: Joseph Eshelman, H. J. McClain. Attorneys for defendant: Albert Sheldon, Sherman Gail. For petitioner Dunn: John Grady and Cereal Tipton. Action for injunction to restrain members of Junior Class from tormenting said plaintiffs. Petitioners contend that at devious times, several members of said class have, by hook and crook, and frequently when they were reciting, been so rude as to tickle them, yelling at the same time Look out, Dunn! That frequently in the men ' s study they encounter unreasonable gents and are chased clear down the stairway. That sometimes they are obliged to holler ooh-ooh, which makes it embarrassing for them. That they are frequently in the air, from a tickle here and a tickle there. And petitioners respectfully submit that they suffer mental anguish, and their studies suffer on that account. CLARA SPRAY TAPPAIN, executioner: The contention that the gentlemen flunk as a result of action specified cannot be sustained. They have flunked time and time again in my class. (So say we all of us.) In regard to the contention of petitioners that there are ungentlemanly boys In the Junior Class, the court finds it to be true, but did the petitioners expect to find gentlemen in a Law School? What do they think — that this is an after- noon tea? Court finds that the point that the gentlemen yell ooh-ooh is to the point. While I realize that the Junior Class is a bunch of squirrel food, where the equities are equal, the jaw will prevail. Let the preliminary injunction be dis- solved and the Juniors do their worst. Page 3S0 (June Term— Civil No. 1323.) (June Term— Civil No. 2313.) IN RE MORTON IN RE SMITH This is a petition for the appointment of a chaperone. These two cases involving the same principles, that of infancy, may be decided and treated as one. Unwarranted facts stated in the opinion of the court. GREGORY CRUETZ vs. Petitioner: Said petition should not be granted. The infant Morton will be more liable to become swamped in the matrimonial marsh if not accompanied by a chap- erone. Infant Dot Smith is known to chatter incessantly and does often become very eloquent, nay, most dramatic when in the presence of infants. I speak from personal experience, and even though it be far from me to see said Dot go, I have the interest of my bach fellows at heart. M. D. GRETHER for Petitioners: Said petition should be granted. Leap year is not to be used as a protec- tion of infant boys, but to give maidens a chance, and therefore in order to lighten our co-eds ' hearts, said infants should be accompanied by a chaperone. Infancy, together with a chaperone, should be used as a shield and not as a sword. HOROWITZ, J.: Petitioners relate following unwarranted facts: That on or about the 29th day of February, 1916, infants Harold Morton and Dot Smith, together with one C. Smith and Dorothy Spence, did then and there take a joy ride to Pomona and from thence on to Riverside. That the said C. Smith, at the instigation of the infant Harold, did intentionally fire at the tire of their machine, thereby delaying their trip. That on reaching Riverside said Dorothy Spence refused to enter the hotel or any other for eats and that infants Harold and Dot did thereupon enter a hash house procuring said eats for all, and that at no time would said Dot Spence be seen out of the machine without a chaperone, as were the infants Harold and Dot. Petitioner further relates that on reaching Los Angeles on or about midnight, D. Spence further refused to be fed, to the disgust of said infants. Question of infancy in fact raised? We believe such ground to be well taken. Said D. Spence was seen at the Freshie banquet with one John C. Haynes and did not leave the Hotel Maryland until past midnight. Johnnie testifies that she at no time expressed the need of a chaperone when with him, thereby establishing, by contrast with said Haynes, the infancy of said Morton and Smith. Infancy in fact of said Morton further established by evidence that he has at sundry times dived into H-O to his shoulders for the sum of a jitney. From evidence deduced from Morton ' s hearty appetite at the Dean ' s Feed, we believe him thoroughly capable of having eaten enough before starting to last him until past Riverside. Petition must be granted. (Civil No. 837— March Term.) (LILLIAN) JOHNSON, Appealant, v. (JOHN) SHEPHERD, Despondent. Petition for attachment to secure a lean on the arms. Facts are stated in the opinion of the court. Marcus Aurelius Woodward for appealant. Dr. Russell for despondent. HOROWITZ, J.: This is an action in attachment. Appealant contends that the lower court erred in admitting evidence (over her pleading eyes) to the fact that appealant has been enamored of before by one John C. Haynes, the LA IV Page 381 Arizona Jack Rabbit. The court finds that despondent ' s contention that his blushing red cheeks and girlish dimples always lure the fairer sex, thereby causing many infatuations, are only inherent frailties uncommon to most men, and of which he should be justly proud. The court found that the equitable maxim, The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not flunk? is not to the point, it being not part of the res gestae. The court must take notice of the fact that an attachment prevents the male in question from paying any attention to any other artist. A drawing attach- ment now exists between the parties in question, and to this court of equity any other would be inequitable and totally unjust, and had the lower court issued one on appeal this court would have caused the lifting of said attachment. The welfare of the library demands that appealant ' s petition be refused. This court recognizes the doctrine of public policy. LOENHOLM, J.: I concur. Despondent has been somewhat irregular in his habits of late, and such tendencies must be curbed. (Civil No. 867— January Term) IN RE COSTELLO. Application by petition for appointment as guardian. The facts are stated in the opinion of the court. E. C. COULTAS, for petitioner. DANFORTH, GRETHER, BETZ and JOHNSON, for Respondents. BRUNNER, J.: Petition filed June 3rd, 1915, by Vernon Gibbs seeking to have himself appointed guardian of one Evelyn Costello. The remarkable aspect of this case is, that on various occasions the person sought as ward by the petitioner (according to the evidence) has signified her willingness to enter said status for life. Respondents ' argument that petitioner has in mind the yellow peril and that said vehicle is a dangerous mechanism for any hare-braned Adonis to handle, is well taken and will receive due consideration. Respondents further contend that petitioner exercises some unknown and occult influence over the person, known as Costello. As to said argument, this court believes it shows a reason why said person needs the protection and guarding influence of a stronger hand, viz., the male. However, this court shall decide this case upon other grounds, for example, these court-house grounds, and it follows from the evidence, (and said Vernon Gibbs has done most of the following), that this case has gone the Limit. The said guardian is also considered by this court to be competent, as he is well red. It may be said that the evidence discloses no trips to Vernon. Let petition be granted and respondents mashed. Rehearing in Costello home denied. I concur — Vernon Gibbs. I concur — Evelyn Costello. LA IV Page 382 BIG LAWYERS AND BIG CALIFORNIA TRIALS A. D. 1965 An attempt to enumerate the great lawyers of this State and the momentous trials in which they have participated, would be futile. It is remarkable that in the space of fifty years, particularly in the last thirty years, there has been produced in this commonwealth a set of lawyers who for brilliancy of mind and intellect and for scholarly attainment stand out preeminently in their pro- fession. It is much more remarkable that with the exception of a very few men, this extraordinary collection of great attorneys was graduated in a single class from a single school of law. I refer to the Class of 1916, graduated from the University of Southern California, at Los Angeles. We are told by the venerable Dean of this school that the class of 1916 did not particularly impress him at that time, in fact, it was rather otherwise. Bulling , as it was called in that day, meaning lack of preparation in studies, and an attempt to get by through the medium of lots of talk with very little to say, was quite prevalent. It is even recorded that the class was at one time in its Senior year called down for too much shooting of paper wads. This was a playful sport indulged in by those in the rear seats of the room, whereby through the agency of a rubber band and a folded piece of paper, the missile was caused to strike someone in front violently in the b ack of the neck. However, time has justified this wonderful body of men and women, and reflects the personality and ability of their Dean and instructors, if not youth- ful intellectual application of its members. A conspicuous member of this class was Victor Ford Collins. A director in a $10,000,000 corporation before he received his sheepskin, a man of great intel- lectual attainments, and a born orator. He is now counsel-in-chief for the Standard Oil Company. Second only to Collins may be mentioned Astor M. Arakelian, known as the Terrible Turk. From his humble beginning as the proprietor of a fruit stand in Long Beach, this naturalized American has risen until he is now counsel for the Armenian embassy and President of the American Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Harem Inmates. Another prominent product of this class is Harold C. Morton. Known for his studious ability and natural oratory, he has steadily risen in his profession. The last time I heard Morton was in the fall of 1963 at the trial of the famous case of People vs. Morrow, Jr. My readers will doubtless remember that this was the trial of a young man whose father was also a great lawyer, and who called upon his old friend, Morton, to assist in his son ' s defense. The legislature had added a section to the Penal Code as follows: Penal Code. 76665. No person shall hereafter wear, or be permitted to wear, that form of hirsute adornment, commonly known as a zitz or dinky mustache. The same is hereby declared a nuisance, contrary to good morals and health, and the wearing thereof, a felony, punishable by life imprisonment or death, or both. Young Morrow was undoubtedly guilty, having brazenly exhibited a rather reddish zitz at a law school which he was attending. Morton ' s plea to the jury was a plea for personal liberty. He traced the laws restraining personal freedom from the date of the Edict of Berlin in 1917, when the Czar, on the capture of that city, decreed that no German thereafter should touch beer, down through the total prohibition of liquor in the world at the Convention of Milwaukee, in 1935, to the present day. His eloquence was wonderful, and it is no reflection on his ability that the jury, at the close of the argument, found the defendant guilty and recommended hanging. The judge who presided at his trial. Judge Carroll M. Counts, was also, by the way, a memer of the Class of 1916. Another interesting case in which several members of the 1916 class par- ticipated was the one popularly known as the Peckwith Will Case. This was a will contest, the peculiar feature of it being that the alleged will was entirely in rhyme. The will was in part as follows: I realize that Life is short; we mortals are but ships that sail the gory seas of Time, a few uncertain trips. The reefs and shoals, the storms and Page SSS winds, the perils of that sea, may soon o ' ertake my feeble craft and make an end to me. And so I make this will of mine before my ship is wrecked, for ' ere I leave this Vale of Tears, I must my dough protect. One million of my large estate, I wish to be applied unto the ' Female Booster ' s Club , whose fame is nation-wide; Build up its woman ' s suffrage work, arouse the female clan, release my suffering sisters from the dominance of man! The residue please use to found a school of oratory, with this condition emphasized, it ' s strictly mandatory. No man shall ever tread its halls, it ' s sanc- tity profaning, but women only shall be fit to take its course of training. The course of training I desire is both profound and critical to thoroughly equip each girl to take the stump political. Make her the equal of that sex so loathed, by this testatrix; let every graduate be hailed a silver-tongued oratrix. Then let these messengers go forth throughout this man-ruled nation, and preach and speech and give the men a touch of consternation, ' til finally, if I am right, they ' ll cause such devastation, That men will give the women votes from sheerly desperation. The proponents of the will were represented by the firm of Crenshaw, Cohen and Cobb, while the contestants had retained Searle, Mattoon and Bull. Days were spent in taking testimony and argument. The proponents were finally beaten, the learned trial judge, John W. Grady, also of checker fame, holding that anyone writing such poetry was prima facie lacking in testamen- tary capacity. Other cases in which members of this famous class participated could be detailed ad finitum, but even the shortest article would be incomplete without mention of the famous case of Vernon vs. Vernon. This divorce action was perhaps the hardest fought case ever tried in California. It was tried by the venerable Judge Doherty, who left the Supreme Bench, and by stipulation of the parties, presided. Mrs. Vernon, herself a lawyer of highest ability, had as counsel: Birdie M. Coultas, Florence V. Danforth, Lyndol Young, and that famous woman ' s advocate, Chauncey M. Bergh. Mr. Vernon was represented by no less an array of counsel: Harry K. Smith, formerly chief attorney for the Greater Los Angeles Street Railway; Myra Dell Grether, suffrage candi- date for president in 1940; Robert L. Vincent and Ray L. Morrow. Vernon was alleged to have never supported the plaintiff and was further charged with chronic fickleness , then but recently made a ground for divorce in this State. The action was fought out on the last ground, it having been shown with reference to the first count that Vernon had occasionally given his wife pocket change. Never was the ability of Birdie Coultas better shown than in the conduct of this case. His genial disposition was irresistible and he had the jury of women with him from the first. Unfortunately, the case never reached the jury. A page from the evidence is of interest. Mrs. Vernon was on the stand, Mr. Coultas questioning and Mr. Smith, as usual, objecting. Q. — Where did you first meet Mr. Vernon? A.— At U. S. C. School of Law. Q. — When did he first show you any attention? Mr Smith — We object to that your honor, they having alleged in the com- plaint that he never showed her ANY attention. Mr. Coultas — That was after marriage. The Court — Objection overruled. A. — The first day I met him. Q. — Did he show you very much attention? Mr. Smith — We object as calling for a conclusion. The Court — Objection sustained. Mr. Coultas — Where do you get that stuff? The Court— Ten dollars. Q. — Were you with him often there at school? L. IV Page 384 A. — We were inseparable. He sat by me in class; he met me in the halls; he talked to me in the library; he cornered me in the office; he rode in the elevator with me, in my machine; called me on the telephone; called at the house; took me to lunch; worried me to death. Q. — Did you fall for him? A. — I finally married him to get rid of him. Q. — And did you? A. — Not yet, but I hope to in this action. Mr. Smith — I move to strike that out. The Court — Granted. CROSS EXAMINATION Mr. Smith: Q. — At the time you met Mr. Vernon at U. S. C, were there any other girls attending that school? A. — There were. Q. — Was there a real good-looking dark-eyed girl there by the name of Stanforth. A.— Yes. Q. — And another by the name Yohnson? A.— Yes. Q. — And another by the name of Horton? A. — Well, she graduated the year before. Q. — NoWj Mrs. Vernon, did you notice Mr. Vernon showing any attentions, as you call them, to any of those girls at that time? A. — I did, but not near as much as to me. Q. — How do you know not as much as to you? A. — He didn ' t while I was around. Q. — You noticed, did you not, however, that his affections were inclined to wander? A. — Well, yes, a little bit. Q. — What do you mean, a little bit? A.— Quite a bit, BUT I THOUGHT HE WOULD SETTLE DOWN AFTER HE WAS MARRIED. Mr. Smith— That ' s all. This proved the turning point in the case, the judge holding that since Mrs. Vernon knew of her husband ' s fickle nature prior to their marriage, she could not be now heard to complain on that score and charge of chronic fickleness could not be maintained. In spite of all argument, he instructed the jury to return a verdict for the defendant, and thus the case was lost. Had we the space we could recite many other cases and anecdotes of other men and women, members of that distinguished class. They are still young. Time has shown their worth and this State is fortunate in having had so many of them remain within her borders. We do not wish to disparage the other lawyers of the commonwealth, but with all due respect to them, we must say, had this class never been graduated, this State would be most sadly lacking in legal talent. At it is, we are noted for the brilliancy of our bar, and in con- clusion, we can only pay our tribute to their school and Dean with the hope that some day another class of equal ability may be sent out from its famous halls. H. F. S. LA If Page 385 SCANDAL!! Mercy! Strange and frightful things happen! No? Yes. What then? The Lyceum banquet at Christopher ' s, known as the ' Valentine Banquet ' . To begin with Charles C. Fuller, who officiated on the menu committee, is married and thereby hangs a tale. Being on said committee he knew what the eats would be or should be. Having this knowledge and with malice aforethought he appeared upon the festive scene minus his better half. (Looks of surprise on the countenances of his fellow members.) Would-be benedicts and Prohibitionists such as Morton and Lilley were there a la force. Everything was as serene and calm as is a summer sea, the birds sang (at least the Lyceumites thought so), the leaves rustled, the mild zephyrous breezes blew and all hearts were happy. But the calm always precedes the storm. And verily a mighty wind arose. Now the wisdom of Fuller showeth. It was an innocent looking concoction of ice, cream, fruits, et cetera. First Morton dabbled daintly in its frozen loveliness, smacked his lips, and with undue celerity sought again the tempting dish, but lo it had vanished, — you shan ' t have it — pouted the fair one by his side. Shades of all ye gods, Lilley was also in trouble. The fairer one upon whom he beamed, more or less a silent partner, refused to eat her delicacy unless our esteemed temper- ance brother also partook — but could he, who had sworn to only drink of the unfermented juice, a la Bryan, partake? Still, this was only eating. The clouds had gathered, and now the lightning flashed, the rain fell. Fuller ate on and smiled. The wretch! Morton twisted and squirmed, his stubborn spirit asserted itself and ere long his dish through unethical methods was empty. But Lilley remained as white as ever — the moral influence by his side a mighty sustaining power. Fuller was happy and sang the joys of a married man. Only the stars were witness as he took the street home. i ' 4 - LA IV Page 386 •that c LYCEUM f DAMQUET . _-LER ,Or THE J EMU COMMITTee. MBDE iPEEP--DUE TO HI ' S WIFE ' S BBSENC6. ?

Perhaps our lawyer friend Shafer, thinks otherwise, at least when it comes to serving papers. Maybe those administered unto wish to return the service and we are inclined to believe that is what happened in this case, although the returned compliment was not to the liking of the acceptor. Briefly, Shafer was desirous of bringing into court a cop and chose to tap him on the arm instead of the bean, and then present him courteously with a summons. The cop awoke from a presumable reverie and served Red with his hand in the form of a fist. The arm of the law met the jaw of a lawyer. It was a law mixup, really mixed law and fact. The cop struck out, and Shafer batted one thousand. (Ed. Note: Mattoon, sell Shafer an insurance policy.)

Evi- dently there flows in Fred ' s veins the desire to be once in awhile acrobatic. To some people it would seem that a little practice might help some. Perhaps Fred was actuated by a desire to frolic, who knows, stranger things have happened, but alas poor man, Lillian knew and he fell. In fact she says she knew he was going to fall and with malice aforethought she let him try it. The sad part of his falling was, that he fell hard, so hard in fact that he refused to frolic or gambol further. Our condolences, Fred. THE REVELATIONS OF A LAW SCHOOL CO-ED OR SIDELIGHTS FROM THE WOMEN ' S STUDY BY MARY JANE BUMPS I was born of poor but homely pa- rents. They gave me all that credit could get by with. At sweet sixteen I graduated from one of the city high schools. I inherited a gift of gab, a strong right arm and a disposition as sweet as nitrate of silver. I have been a stenographer, I have clerked in a department store, I have played golf, and I have lived with two little tormenting brothers for over ten years, but these were the greatest pleasures of my life in comparison Continued pa{?c 4 Night News April 1st It was the night of April 1.

Those were the happy days, as happy as the Lamentations of Jeremiah (or was it the Dean) ; you see Bible His- tory is out of place in a Law School, except when they lecture on Legal Ethics. I started out with a double handi- cap. Being good looking my first frosh days evoked the plaudits of some freshman boys, who showed their appreciation by whistling. My second handicap — well how was I to know that the sweet little red haired boy who used to be in the office had been already spoken for — at least he was eager enough to flirt — when SHE wasn ' t around. Well my activity was reported to the headquarters of my sex — the Girls ' Study — where I faced a jury of my peers — at least they thought they were, and the ordeal that followed stopped the circulation of my blood. My next slip was when I tried to bluff in Tap ' s class. That man is no more human than the Girls ' Sorori- ty. After my effort — and it was a noble one — I was again indicted be- fore the bar of Female Opinion and one of these reticent society Janes or dames proceeded to boil me in oil as Judge Wells would say. I came near handing her a bunch of Fives, but she was as small as McPike, so I merely laughed and asked her if she A LAW SCHOOL CO-ED paid my tuition. One of my most interesting expe- riences happened in the Mutt Court presided over by Chas. Milkcan; but my conversation was with deputy clerk More-cuss Hair-on, the chub- by little youngster with the staccato voice and the automobile goggles. Well I was seen by one of the boys, who told a legal light, who told a sorority sister, who told Annette Hun- ley, who told Millikan, who told the Dean, that I was delaying the effi- ciency of the Hoot Court. My next scrap was vnth a Legal Light, and it involved the lugging of some food to Sycamore Grove, the annual picnic sight (site). Won ' t it be fun, she barked. I heard you the first time, I cooed back. The idea of lugging eats 10 miles out, when you can get a rib steak at the Limit for two bits, and the en- joyment not impaired by the fastiti- ous favors of the frivolous females. I ' ve had miles and miles of smiles — from the boys; and many a knock from the girls. Some of them are sweet and good natured, and some are not. Most of them intend to practice law, out in the cold, cold world — some intend or hope to confine their prac- tice to one household. Some of them will remain unplucked from the matri- monial bush — and some are already plucked. Ah, those were the happy days. May they (never) come again.

Was my question as I saw his love-lit eyes, Leave me? — or — no — not yet — you see — He pointed — it was Venus in the skies!

A rather sophisticated mem- ber of the faculty suggested when the writer was a fresh- man that the Dean gave these feeds in order that those who had graduated might attend and get at least one big free lunch each year. Sleeper Brown and Hog Sterry who were very much in attendance at the last feast, expressed much disgust and disapproval of the menu; the eats are all right said Sleeper, but after a fellow eats ten or twelve hot dogs he gets thirsty. One peculiar feature of the feeds is that the eats are the least ex- pensive part of them. Invariably a bevy of roughnecks get together and shoot a few windows for exercise which puts the school about five seeds in the hole. The best part of the repasts is the Dean ' s good nature. The Dean believes that boys are boys, and loves every roughneck in the school. Indeed the Dean once confidentially made the statement that he judged a batch of frosh by the rumpus they kicked up at a feed. He based his opinion, he said, on the time-worn axiom, No one will make a good lawyer who can ' t grab a free hot dog in a rush and yell at the same time. The Dean ' s attention was at this juncture called to the fact that he evi- dently differed from the old Spartan theory. Yes, said the Dean, I do. When you put one over yell about it. Thats a lawyer ' s business. Pete Werner avers that he disagrees with the Dean in that he doesn ' t believe in the Grab and Yell theory, but inclines rather to the Blow and Laugh. When asked to explain, Pete evinced an unusual shyness and desisted on the spot. The big trouble with the Dean ' s feeds is the same as that with a pay envelope, the waits are too long and lean in between. Let ' s discard the plenty and famine system and have these feasts at reasonable intervals. You know what I mean. h, LAir Page 405 SENIOR BANQUET Every law student an athlete, such was the verdict after the senior ban- quet at the L. A. A. C. At least such a conclusion was warranted eith er as far as the consuming of delectables was concerned or the little matter of speech may be involved. The report has it that Judge Wells, Dean Porter, Judge Craig, Monk Morgan, Monty, Vic Collins and Phil Sterry were bunched at the end of the two-hour grind and consumed somewhere around ten lbs. Be that as it may Kemp Campbell, Linnet Young, Hornet Morton, Pat Millikan and a few others (accent on the others), vaulted around twelve feet, a few alighting on their feet, some nat alighting at all — at all. (And all the time the poor stude ATE and waited!!) There was music and girls, lovely girls, as the Dean would say, and to say the least he (the Dean), was a jolly fellow and it was contagious, why even Pat Millikan was laughing and our esteemed Judge Craig called for more water instead of facts, and established himself very securely. (And all the time the poor stude ate and WAIT--ED!!) Did they eat? Yes, a little. Did they play on the instruments? Yes, some. Did they speechify? Yes, very muchly. (And all the time the poor stude digested and W-A-I-T-E-D-!!) At eleven some went home, some chatted and some danced. All together an enjoyable event. (And the poor stude went home.)

JUDGE CRAIG: Any more facts. Will you state the law of the case. Well, if you don ' t know any more about it sit down and give someone else a chance. TAPP: Well, Mr. do you dissent or concur? Oh, I see — suppose you tell us about it. JUDGE HOUSER: So, you disagree with the text in the case cited on page 362? Supposing you turn in a brief on that next time. SIMONS: Mr. what cases were cited by the respondent in the case we had today in 44 Cal. — ? Supposing a plumber fixing a leak in a gas pipe, struck a safety match to light his pipe, the gas becomes ignited, an explosion occurs, blowing up a gas reservoir, which destroys an electric plant, causing a short circuit, which LAW Page 406 thereby ties up the car service, blows up the police department, tears up the water mains, burns down the city, thereby causing the citizens to take refuge in a brewery, where they too became lit up — question is — is the insurance company liable? First Brite Stude: No-o because lighting the match was a friendly fire. Second B. S. They wouldn ' t be liable in any event because everyone who has red nose, in the orgy in the brewery, the oxidation was of eminently proper materials, was in the proper place, and was in the control of the parties. There being nolsody on the waterwagon then and there, their chances are slim. What is a friendly fire? Ans. One that bears no animosity towards you. TUTTLE: Mr. is a bathhouse a craft within the meaning of the Act? First Brite Stude: Yes, it floats. Second B. S.: So do barrels and ivory soap.

If it takes a microbe fourteen days to eat through a petrified carrot, the jurisdiction of a pealed onion is W-H-A-T? McKNIGHT: When I was at the legislature.

DOHERTY: The proposition is this: If you ' ll allow me, I ' ll do the talking myself today. LITTA BELLE HIBBEN: I think the community property laws in California are fair enough; if a woman gets a man to furnish her a home and take care of her, she ought to be satisfied.

The fruits of Dr. Palmer ' s labor are now being realized to the gratification of his co-workers and the satisfaction of his successors. With a small gathering in a room on Temple street and with few accessories they struggled along. Dr. Garrett Newkirk succeeded as dean in 1901 and held that position for four years, when he resigned to accept a position on the California State Board of Dental Examiners. Since Dr. Newkirk ' s resignation Dr. Lewis E. Ford has been at the head of the institution. Under Dr. Ford ' s careful supervision the College has made wonderful strides toward attaining the highest ideals coveted by the best colleges of the profession. From the little room on Temple street the College has developed until in 1905 it became necessary to erect a building which could accommodate our needs. But notwithstanding the foresight of the College authorities at that time, it again become necessary to obtain larger quarters, and today, the College of Dentistry is occupying its new and thoroughly equipped quarters. DENTISTRY Page 410 SCHWAMM Student Body OFFICERS President Herbert Richmond Vice-president John Schwamm Secretary-Treasurer Corliss Moseley Dental Editor of El Rodeo Irwin Wells THE YEAR Although the student body of a professional college is necessarily an un- wieldy unit, the associated student organization at the College of Dentistry has been more alert and active during the past year than at any previous time in its history. The required studies have been as difficult, and the laboratory work as long; yet through effective leadership and co-operation, time has been found for the development of a healthy college spirit. The distance of Dentistry from the main campus has placed the college at a disadvantage in its relationship to university activities, this year being the first in which Dental men have participated in varsity athletics, while representa- tives of the college have as yet been unable to embrace their opportunity to take part in university drama and debate. In order to bring the student organizations of the professional colleges into closer contact with life at the campus. President Richmond met early in the year with Presidents Chapman, Morton, and Swartz, representing, respect- ively, the Associated Student Body, the College of Law, and the College of Medicine. Because the necessity for united action among the several student bodies was felt by all, a coalition committee composed of the men already named was organized, plans being arranged for regular meetings at stated intervals. DENTISTRY Page 411 As a result of the enthusiasm and spirit thus generated, three Dentistry men, Schwamm, Moseley and Adair, joined the varsity football squad, all three men landing berths on the first team, the latter two finally earning their mono- grams. With these men as a nucleus, the Dentists met the Lawyers in an inter- college game, which resulted in a 0-0 score after sixty minutes of strenuous football. The game closed with the ball on the enemy ' s ten-yard line, only the whistle preventing the Dental team from crossing the goal line of their oppo- nents. The return game was never played. Not only in athletic but also in scholastic endeavor has the college achieved noteworthy recognition. A recent invitation to the College of Dentistry for the installation of a chapter of the newly organized national honor society in dentistry has aroused wide interest among the men most interested in the ad- vancement of scholarship. The proposed society, to be known as the Matthew H. Cryer Oral Surgery Association, has been founded with the purpose of giv- ing to the professional man what Phi Beta Kappa gives to the Liberal Arts student. The prerequisite for membership is to be high scholastic standing up to and including the midyear junior examinations. DENTISTRY Page 412 Senior Dentals OFFICERS President Leland Jackson Vice-president James Carter Secretary-Treasurer Maud Fisher REVIEW OF REVIEWS Remember the first night up there in those double lecture-rooms just above the O. K. ? I didn ' t know the cause of the faint aroma wafted aloft from the room underneath until Babe and I stepped in there to eat, the next day. It was that night that we received the impetus which has spurred us on in making the valiant and unsurpassed strides which the class of ' 16 has made in the pro- fession. There we sat, wild-eyed, humble and meek, the personification of ideal freshmen, while in the back row sat our upperclassmates, showing their ignorance in a vain attempt to awe the new and ambitious freshmen. Through an atmosphere of profound reverence rang out those words immortal to the class of ' 16: Your chosen profession — not for the personal gain nor the mighty dollar, but for the good of mankind. The good old mahogany-furnished upper hall on Wall street was the meet- ing place of friends and rivals. There we congregated, listened to and adored the sweet voice for two weeks before we learned that it wasn ' t really Caruso. We became acquainted and filled the old street with the sweet strains of He ' s a College Boy, a ditty led by Turp ' s rich voice. Then came a challenge from the class of ' 15 enticing us into a pole rush. Our leader was chosen and his football training constructed for us a flying DENTISTRY Page 413 wedge with which we were prepared to thrust aside all unlucky juniors who might get in the way. Secreted in our midst were two Japanese boys who were ready to free themselves from the throng and scamper to the dizzy heights of the pole, seize the colors and win victory for us. The lecture-room chairs were pushed back and practice was held. Oh, worse day for the juniors ! At the end of the year, the class scattered for the long summer months, occasionally to meet here and there, at the beach or in the mountains, in groups of twos and threes, to talk over the year gone by, and to speculate and ponder over the years that were to come. In the fall, all met again. Some of the old faces were gone. New ones appeared to fill their benches, but not their places. Once more the bells rang in the hall, and the cogs began to take hold. We were no longer the lowly and despised. It even fell to our lot to post rules and regulations for the newcomers who stood in our midst. Those were the good old days. There was the trip to Balboa. We had some time, too! Little old Brindle was king of them all, while Thorny showed us all that the real art of riding a surf-board could only be learned on the back stairs. If it hadn ' t been for daylight that game would be going yet. And so, with the aid of friendly raillery and popular magazines, we passed the leisure moments. We left good old Fifth and Wall and went to a school of different policy. The new building was patterned as an ideal dental col- lege. Here we conducted ourselves more properly. With the exception of an occasional battle in the trenches of the amphitheater, our boisterous indoor squabbles ceased entirely. Oh, yes, we did have an unexciting pole rush with the incoming freshmen. They outnumbered us two to one ; but, of course, no one could expect two freshmen to hold their own against a junior. The con- test was fast and furious while it lasted, and although the casualty list was not as large as might have been expected after such a strenuous battle, all the near- by physicians were kept busy in applying liniment and bandages to the afflicted veterans of the opposing forces. Whether the result of the rush helped to shape the attitude of the freshmen has never been fully determined. In spite of the uncertainty, it is said the class of 1917 have since recommended the discontinuance of the time honored contest. Thus we passed on through the latter part of our life at U. S. C. Dentistry, perfecting ourselves for the time when we would be able to share the odontal- igies of the world with mankind. Three years together, and without a single exception, every man is a good fellow. Although we have been unable to participate in all of the activities enjoyed by the other colleges, the thoughts of the time we have spent together will not be without its pleasant remembrances, nor will there be one of us who will not regret the severance of the companionship enjoyed during these three years. DENTISTRY Page 4U Some day it will be a pleasure to revert to this record of o ld times, and so we have recorded it here just as you will remember it and as you have heard it told so many times before. But these thoughts of our college days are not complete without — AN ODE TO AN EMPTY PURSE ' Tween the old time and the new We have sung heart-songs to you, Companion of our career, Empty again ? A student ' s cheer. In the Lab we hear it, so: A quarter. Bo? I ' m sorry, no. I ' d give it to you — that ' s no joke — But I, like you, am also broke. Oh, yawning purse, coin-stained, By heartless supplymen drained!

DENTISTRY Page 421 Junior Dentals OFFICERS President William Snyder Vice-president John Stocker Secretary Robert O ' Brien Treasurer Lee Fitzhugh B. S. A few words are necessary at this time in order that the readers of this volume may become equipped with at least a superficial knowledge of facts regarding the junior class. So peruse the following lines, good readers, and become acquainted with the class of men who are going to shape the destiny of a great profession. When we juniors boarded the train for Knowledge in the State of Dentistry in 1914, we knew little about the obstacles which, in the natural course of events, would be placed in our way. First, we gave up our tuition fee, performing the act with good grace, for we thought that, at that moment, we held our diplomas in our hands. What fools we mortals be. The next matter we had to attend to, and incidentally, the source of the worst blow of all to our aspirations for higher things, was the call to arms to quell the enthusiasm of the over ardent juniors, for remember, we were then freshies. To say that we dampened the ardor of the notorious juniors would be to state it mildly; but mark you, kind friends, it was an empty victory. It rankled in our breasts that we men who had entered into professional careers in a profession among professions which calls for the use of sound limbs and healthy brains, should have consented to participate in such a humiliating con- test. That verv moment decided our future action. DENTISTRY Page 422 The pole rush was doomed hy the freshman class of 1914; not that we felt incapable of carrying it through successfully, but that we felt it incumbent upon ourselves to prohibit such brutal and unscientific play for the sake of humanity and Dentistry. Therefore dear readers, we, the class of 1917, have established a precedent by abolishing this brutal attempt to prove superiority, and by substituting for it a royal welcome to the boys who come from various walks of like, keen in the search for knowledge in their chosen profession. The time did come, however, during the past year, when we desired to give a demonstration of our prowess in baseball and football. We issued a challenge to the freshmen, and needless to say, we were the victors. A few words regarding the thought of the junior class towards Dentistry may be appropriate. Under the ever-watchful eyes and carefully weighed words of Dr. La Touche, our Dean, and Dr. Endelman who occupies the chair of Special Pathology and Materia Medica, we find ourselves continually think- ing of the road which lies ahead. Certainly we find many barriers, but just as surely as we find a barrier, just as surely do we find a loophole. As Dr. La Touche says, in the course of propounding the laws of operative dentistry, you can flunk in anatomy, but you can ' t flunk in operative. The same case is presented by our worthy friend and adviser, Dr. Endel- man who, in the course of a lecture in Materia Medica, will deviate from his subject long enough to state that to be a success in Dentistry one must know Pathology and Materia Medica.

Young IRONMONGER THEE GEHA Freshmen Dentals OFFICERS President Earl Thee Vice-president Lynn Ironmonger Secretary-Treasurer William Geha FRESHMEN PRECOCITY The ren arkable phenomenon about all freshman classes of all time is their precocity. They all have this ; it is of the essence. Each college of every uni- versity is a hot-bed of it, and the still more remarkable thing about it all is that each new class of freshmen is even more precocious than an before. Year- books, those mo dels of veracity and almost overweening bashfulness, all admit this. Each generation of dear young things who are learning to be or to do some- thing grand has haltingly admitted in blazoning type its superiority of genius over all predecessors. Then, having once set the confiding tongue a-rolling so that its inertia has fairly counteracted any mite of comely restraint, what do these dear young things do ? — prognosticate fatuously of an excellence too superior to be assailed by any successors. But this last is of course ridiculous and too palpably absurd to warrant consideration, being a reflection upon the authors too serious to be countenanced. Why? — ah!, and here ' s the point: Dental ' 18 is rather precocious itself. From the time the first dental student was set to work making brass wire instruments, even unto now, when Timely Waltermeyer keeps thinking that tomorrow he ' ll return his and get a few points on them ; since First Dental was set to taking impressions in compound, until Supplee Smith perfected the DENTISTRY Page 425 technic and showed us how me and Doc Spinks does it; since First Dental recited on Scarpa ' s triangle, until Cunny Ham Krause tried to distinguish a third phalanx from the femur — during all this time, it has been this same class which has been full of wonders. Look at little Kewpie Smith. Was there ever such a chairman as he? Didn ' t he stand up in our first meeting and tell all the boys he ' d act if they forced him to; and then, when they forced him, he talked, and talked, and talked, interspersing his language with that beatific, ear-to-ear smile that sim- ply can ' t be resisted until we forgot all about silly things called officers? Yes, he did ; and the training he received on that day has enabled him to lead yells just as easily as he sells tin cans and butcher knives. But he has just about petered out. Lieutenant Thee, with the flowing moustache, sells the stuff now, and with all his brass, has a difficult time. We have footballists too. There ' s Cuty Warren who breaks ribs, Webfoot Adair who can ' t hear very well in Histology, Excelsior Whitesell who dis- places his shoulder just to show the boys, and Shorty Bagwell who breaks his hand and can ' t do Laboratory practice. Peggy Ross makes ducky little plates, and Mormon Ballinger dotes on scrambled eggs. And while we are talking about dissection, I wonder who has the idea that Roily Poly Hendrie can ' t do it? It took a lot of persuasion to get him to go in there the first night. But he ' s better now. He walks right in, pulls up his trowsies, and dives in. He ' s a gay old bird, is Roily, but so is Jumper Brown. He dissects that way. Clad in full regalia, he believes in standing as far away as possible. Do you remember the air rifle used in former days? Then we were profli- gate with our ammunition, if you ' ll remember, always bagging the bird that sat still long enough. What was a barrel of shot to one drop of blood? But M % ' % % f?sl P Iff r s fl ! ! f ,t,i ' f . t.f t fVtN - .«« . 9 i DENTISTRY Page 426 now, all is changed. One little Mary Thon Bebee is worth more than a whole flock of birds, and no one sends him after one of them. Thor Washburn, of prodigious valor with the goodly mead, fears nary a quaff from the copious horn at Joetunheim. And you know our twins, Silent Maiers and Meeky Kellogg, whom we don ' t know are about unless we see them. To offset this difficulty though, you should hear W. C. T. U. Springer limber up when he has ire. And singers! How about Caruso Haughawaut, with his aria from I ' Pagliacci? Santy Clary Geha has a voice too, but uses it to ask questions. He becomes manda- tor) ' only when he pleads with the boys to pay your dues. Frenchy Pischon says, Yeanh, to everything but such a request, when he says, Nonh. Ferricmonger is our best chemist. Ask him the formula for water or table- salt, and he ' ll know. Jitney Ford, the ubiquitous, we have with us too ; as well as Enda Meba Ehrenclou, specialist in Pyorrhcea ; Emb-b-b-bryo Phillip ; his half brother Peiper, Radio Waters, from the Bimini Baths; Pat Herdstein, the dean ' s conferee ; Bummy Friedman ; Serious Vawter, the lad who never chuckles; Jim Hill, owner of the Santa Fe ; Clare Brockett, who plays in the band ; Movie Morje, the Albany policeman ; Sunshine Vanasan, who never gets sore, and Chi Yi Blythe, who barks and then wags his tail. Others, too, — but space grows short. None of us have flunked out yet — it ' s too early. We have all heard about certain ignorant Juniors though, and certain of us wouldn ' t be a Junior on that account. But if thev force us to — if they do ? DEi TISTRY Page 427 Freshmen Roll H. S.

It would seem as though we, in this twentieth century, are obsessed with the great events that are crumbling and making over this whole world, and that these thoughts would make us pause in awe at the almost unthinkable doings and undoing of man-made things and events ; that they would cause us to look in wonderment to the seeming occult powers that govern and control. As one feels and knows from experience in the various vicissitudes that shape the affairs of men, the realization of the great and governing principles for which our University stands must become more potent in our thoughts. We can but realize that, with these ideals governing and permeating each of its departments, a great and prosperous era is now MEDICINE Page 430 dawning for the University of Southern California and alike upon its allied colleges. Let us all work with a realization of the great wave of prosperity that is coming, and the vast good that will accrue to this community from that prosperity. A great university must rear its monuments of learning in this community ; that university must be the University of Southern California, while its allied professional colleges must, and will, participate in the glory of the parent institution. The College of Physicians and Surgeons is quick to grasp the benefits of uni- versity associations, and is keeping pace with the requirements of such affiliation. Our medical school is crowded to the doors with college-bred men and women who have had the foundation of learning which will enable them to grasp more readily the science that spreads out before them in the vast field of Medi- cine and Surgery. The medical department has adopted the two years of outlined college work as a pre-medical requirement. This places it in the ranks of the leading medi- cal schools of America. Full-time, full-salaried laboratory teachers and in- structors ; thoroughly equipped and modern laboratories with all the latest and best teaching apparatus ; and a scholastic requirement equal to that of any school in America, is its shibboleth. As the University grows, we grow ; and the bright and shining lights of ethics and educational progress which surround our university shall be the guiding and beckoning beacon of higher and better and brighter things for its medical department. The College of Physicians and Surgeons is now admitted by all authorities up to the hour in all departments. Charles W.

Anatomy, physiology and pathology are no longer topics for discussion. Instead, symptoms and differen- tial diagnosis furnish the subject matter for learned discourses by the under- graduates. It is understood that some of the most ambitious members of the class have already begun to write Dr. and M.D. with alacrity. ■ ' ■ ' ' MEDICINE Page 435 Freshmen Medics OFFICERS President Stephen Craig Vice-president Ina Torgersok Secretary-Treasurer James Chapman Reinforced by a large number of Liberal Arts students, together with the usual delegation from various parts of the globe, the Class of 1919 began its four years of medical training with fear and hope. They early donned the white apron, the symbol of pinafore days and freshmanship, and are even now looking forward to the dignity which they will assume when they are per- mitted to wear the cap and gown. ■ ■i- ■ MEDICINE Page 436 EZRA ANTHONY HEALY Dean of College of Theology The College The Maclay College of Theology is growing in numbers and efficiency and is recognized as holding a prominent place among the schools in which candi- dates for the Christian ministn,- find preparation and training. Its faculty is composed of men who are experienced and successful in their work. The student body includes representatives from all the continents and graduates of several colleges. The alumni are giving good account of them- selves at home and in many lands. In February last, the Shimyo Maru carried from San Francisco for India, Harold Smith, accompanied by his wife and children. Mr. Smith is one of the recent graduates of Maclay and also holds his degree from the College of Liberal Arts.

THEOLOGY Page 440 LAIRD JOSEPH STABLER Dean of College of Pharmacy The College Pharmacy has made great progress in recent years, the commercial side having been almost revolutionized, while the professional side has made rapid advance- ment. The education of the Pharmacist must fit him for greater services to humanity — in compounding prescriptions, in the testing of food supplies, in chemical and bacteriological tests for the physician, in technical services to the manufacturing industries and in dispensing information to the public. The College of Pharmacy, the newest of the campus colleges, dates from 1904, when it had a total enrollment of less than a dozen students. The faculty now includes as many professors and lecturers as there were students in the first year of the life of the college, while the student body has an enrollment of 75. The College is equipped with lecture rooms and laboratories, both in the Chem- istry and Liberal Arts buildings. These are well stocked with materials and thoroughly modern apparatus, suitable for work of an advanced nature as well as for the regular courses. PHARMACY Page 442 The Faculty Laird J.

Neve PHARMACY Page 443 Student Body OFFICERS President James Sharpe Vice-president Robert Sims Secretary-Treasuier Mary Pfahler Sergeant-at-Arms Zelba Acer Pharmacv Editor of El Rodeo Edward Prince On Monday, October 4, 1915, the College of Pharmacy opened for regis- tration. Thirty-eight students registered as juniors and the same number as seniors, making a total of seventy-six in the student-body. The classes settled down to real work a few days later and have been steadily at it ever since. However, they have occasionally found time to forget the thirst for knowledge in order to enjoy a social affair, several of which have been held throughout the year. The first of these was a reception given by the Omicron Chapter of the Phi Delta Chi at their house on Thirty-eighth Street. A large number of the student body and the alumni were present and spent an enjoyable evening get- ting acquainted and renewing old acquaintances. At a late hour refreshments were served. Everyone pronounced the affair a huge success. It has been the custom each year for the seniors to welcome the juniors shortly after registration, by giving a banquet, entertainment, or like affair. This year the seniors chartered a launch at San Pedro and, taking the juniors in tow, sailed off for Catalina Island. Just before the big U. S. C.-U. C. football game, the Pharmacy students were called upon to build a bear, an effigy of California, and to manufacture explosives to blow up said animal. Mr. Ball of the junior class started the ball rolling by building the bear which was rolled around the field by pajama PHARMACY Page 44-f clad freshmen at the Pajamarino jolly-up prior to the big game. At the proper moment the big brown bruin was blown to bits, much to the satisfaction of the crowd of rooters assembled. The annual interclass football game was played the first week after the Christmas vacation. Although there is a tradition that the juniors shall alwajs win this game, they did so this year, contrary to general expectation. Mention should be made of the large number of students who have passed the California State Board examinations, and who are now registered as pharmacists and assistant pharmacists. Instead of waiting until after gradua- tion these ambitious pill-rollers took the examinations after one year of college work. The high marks that many received attest the value of the work given at the College of Pharmacy. YELL Arroba!

Los Angeles PHARMACY Page -fSS College Athletics Due to a series of misunderstandings the annual interclass football game was not played until the first week in January. After the game had been played, the situation was adjusted to the satisfaction of both parties. On Friday, January 7, the two teams accompanied by a large number of the student body traveled to Manual Arts where, through the courtesy of Coach Fristch, the players were given suits and allowed the use of the football field. The non-combatants occupied a space in the press stand and supplied the necessary noise. The game was played on a field of sawdust which had been thoroughly dampened by three days ' rain. This had a cooling effect on the anatomies of the pharmacy footballers but not on their spirits, for they played good football. During the first three quarters, the teams see-sawed back and forth over the field, the advantage first with one side, then with the other. The juniors ' goal was never in great danger ; the defense of their backfield was never pene- trated. Doty, Thomas and Stone, the junior stars, were always in the seniors ' way. Herrman starred as a tackier for the seniors, stopping everything that came in his territory. Baker, Mastin and Dorward also .showed plenty of pep. The greatest gains by the seniors were due to the penalties inflicted upon their opponents by the referee. In the last quarter Thomas carried the ball over for a touch-down, the only score made, and the game ended with the juniors winning by a 6-0 score.

The seniors were the hosts of the juniors and were determined to entertain in a most unusual way. The Pacific Electric station was the primary center of attraction and, like a huge magnet, drew students from various parts of the city and nearby towns at an early hour. A special car with the merrymakers aboard left for San Pedro at seven-thirty. Here they were met by parties from Long Beach. Professor and Mrs. Maas arrived in their car. A boat had been chartered to carry the pill-rollers and their friends to the Catalina Islands. The gay throng went for a spin around the bay to see the torpedo boats : thence to the outer harbor, and to sea. The ride was highly enjoyed by some but not so much so by others; although the affliction mal de mer was limited to a few of the fair sex. The aquatic trip ended rather soon, passengers, freezers, boxes, bundles and packages being landed at Avalon. The committee of entertainment performed their duty well. Games and feats of many kinds were on the list, but at noon, all thoughts turned simul- taneously to the annihilation of provisions. The senior girls arranged the spread and, in cafeteria style, served every couple with victuals fit for a king, but which only picnickers can really appreciate. The afternoon was spent in various ways as the different parties chose. Some went swimming, others went to Sugar Loaf, while many others viewed the strange scenes in the depth of the bay through the glass bottomed boats. Kodaks were in high favor. Later, all gathered for a game of baseball, after a few innings of which the juniors showed their superiority. The lowering darkness started the crowd homeward. At first, a scene of dining afloat was depicted, after which couples strayed to the upper deck; many choosing the main deck. The stars did their best to disclose quiet romances, but the moon dared not venture forth. Many popu- lar songs were sung and antique melodies disturbed the quietude of the ocean ' s slumber. The flashing of the searchlight off San Pedro signaled the closing of a day of festivity. The juniors declared it the best time ever and pronounced the seniors entertainers de luxe. After the excursion on the ocean, the home- bound trip by electric helped the revellers to cast all sea-faring ambitions aside, and content themselves with the simple life at the College of Pharmacy.

S. C. Prep School, and inasmuch as they appeared harm- less, (also hopeless), the school officials deemed it advisable to grant their request. This seemingly unimportant step marking the advent of the Class of ' 16 was destined to culminate in as distinguished a group of students as ever entered the institution. In the past four years we have witnessed numerous events and changes in our academy life. The name of Southern California Academy has been officially changed to University High School, although it is improbable that the term Preps will ever be entirely abandoned. The demerit system and detention period have been introduced during the past year, and it looks as though all succeeding classes will be blessed by their presence. The duck pond episode of 1913 will never cease to be a topic for discussion among those who gather in Study Hall during the noon hour. Some foolish college fresh- men objected to the word Preps, which had been painted in bright red letters on the back walk. They made themselves so disagreeable in the matter that they, with a few upperclass allies, were taken to the duck pond. Last year, the class of ' 16 entertained the seniors at a party, which sur- passed anything of its kind in the history of the school. The success of this affair was due largely to the efforts of Venus Wilson, Paul Blenkiron, Elene O ' Haver, Avis Spangler and Gerald Ogborn, who was then class president. To Johnny, less familiarly known as Valeria Johnston, goes the distinc- tion of being the most energetic member of the class. When, during this last year, it looked as though there might be no Prep section in El Rodeo, Johnny hopped right in, and, by hard work, saved the day. If you don ' t believe she ' s popular, look at her pedigree in the Senior Photograph Gallery. Swede Werner is the hard worker among the boys. He has always taken an active interest, and last semester filled the office of class president in ver ' acceptable manner. Charles Richter, another of our members, has been one of the team ' s most loyal supporters during the past basketball season. Two others who have faithfully served their four terms are Avis Spangler and Bertha Thomas. Miss Spangler, as vice-president of the student body was a great success, especially in the matter of social affairs. Miss Thomas has always been a faithful follower of all student activities, particularly ath- letics. In athletics, we were represented by Jesse Burks, a new arrival, and Tommy Metcalfe. In basketball, Burks played forward and Metcalfe guard ; while in baseball Tommy was captain of the team and held down third base with Jess alternating between second and the pitcher ' s box.

Second Semester Claude Reeves President Philip Haber Esther Wilson Vice-president .Robert Kenny Elna Stanton Secretary-Treasurer .Elna Stanton Eugene Mixer Athletic Manager Eugene Mixer HISTORY Three years ago the University High School was introduced for the first time to the Class of 1917. Faculty and students alike were struck with the dignity and intelligence of these newcomers who, had it not been for their youth, would have been taken for seniors. During their sophomore year they tackled the problems of school life with the spirit which has ever since been characteristic of the class. As juniors they established precedents which will place the University High School upon the map. In athletics the juniors were represented by Mixer and Miller under whose leadership they won the interclass basketball championship and who furnished the nucleus around which the baseball team was built. As a demonstration of superiority, the junior class defeated the seniors in debating the question, Resolved, that the best interests of the United States demand a return to a high protective tariff. Reeves and Siegel argued for the negative and won for the juniors by an unanimous decision. On the night of January 21 in Athena Hall, the junior class presented, The Elopement of Ellen, a farce in three acts. Miss Esther Wilson in the role of Ellen, and Philip Haber in the role of Bob showed real talent in the leading parts. Miss Elna Stanton and Clarence McCollum as married folks played their parts well. Miss Brady as Dorthy March, was the cause of much specu- lation. At first it was impossible to tell whether the Reverend Claude Reeves or Max Ten Eych or James Rogers, would be the lucky man. James finally proved to be the heart soother. The juniors are much indebted to Miss Hicks and Mrs. Don Carlos who so faithfully and efficiently directed the play. In scholarship the Class of ' 17 is probably ahead of any previous junior class. It is said that the principal has hinted, that, were it not for being without a senior class next year, he would graduate the juniors in June.

Consequently Gertrude Martin as secretary, and Ned Tanenbaum as president, were elected as the ones best representing that spirit. This being leap year, the president very graciously decided to leave much of the distasteful work to the vice-president ; but those in the class who belong to the more dangerous species lived up to their reputation by electing him class representative of El Rodeo. (Revenge is sweet.) Ray Petitfils and Hilton Habbick also had a shot at the pork barrel proceeds, which means that Habbick became our esteemed athletic manager. Incidently he put out a win- ning team, which took the combined efforts of the whole allied student body to squash. As to famed celebrities in the class: Well, there ' s Ray Petitfils. He scin- tillates as a vice-president too. ' Bout all he does is scintillate. That reminds us of another prominent member, Marie Cooney, that rising young dramatic star who so ably interpreted the role of the Queen in the all-star tragedy pre- sented by the girls of the student body last year. Oh, yes, there ' s Marian Long, student-body vice-president and Feed Expert, and Rosmond De Kalb, staff PREPS Page 470 artist. Paul Terry, who does animated cartoon stunts both with pencil and baseball bat hasn ' t decided yet whether he will follow in the foosteps of Tinker or Bud Fisher, so we can ' t classify him as yet. And there are many, many others equally famous, but the editor won ' t give us any more room so we ' ll have to write them up next year. We had to blame someone because we ran short of material, so we have stepped on the editor. PREPS Page 471 D. MILLER SPEICHER LOEHR WEBSTER B.

It is really too early to make any predictions as to how successfully their feeble intellects will cope with the many problems which confront them daily, but it appears that they will pass through this ordeal and all other edu- cating processes with smiles on their faces and joy in their hearts. It is sad, but true, that the first year celebrities are few only one of them having become famous in the short time that the class has been an integral part of the school. Probably the others have not, as yet, been able to spare the time from their grinding toil to show what wonderful personages they are in reality. However, by the time of graduation, there undoubtedly will not be a member of the class who has not achieved at least local notoriety. Lawrence Cook, the class president has already won his way into the hearts of the students by his unexcelled work as basketball guard, and as pitcher for the baseball team. PREPS °aae 472 The class of ' 19 can boast of more social events during the first semester of its existence than any other freshman class which has entered the High School. On the afternoon of November 29, Professor Willett kindly released the class from its irksome duties that it might enjoy a picnic in Monrovia. The picnic was held at the home of the class teacher, and was a great success. Another social evening was made possible by the kindness of Miss Stella Yocum, at the home of Miss Florence Hicks. It was given on the evening of February 3. On the whole, it may be safely said that if the class continues to show the enthusiasm that it does at present its career will be marked by many happy events.

After practice games with Manual Arts and Glendale, the league series began. On January 7 the first regular game was played with San Fernando on San Fernando Court. The U. H. S. team led in scoring until a few minutes before the final whistle, when their opponents forged ahead and won by one point. The game with Compton during the following week proved less exciting. Superior work on the part of her forwards in goal-throwing placed U. H. S. well in the lead before the end of the contest. Van Nuys, likewise, was com- pletely outclassed in the game with U. H. S. on the local court on January 15. One of the hardest fought contests of the year was played with the Ingle- wood team who were determined to revenge their defeat in two pre-season practice games. A slippen,- floor rendered close guarding impossible, and en- abled both teams to score heavily. U. H. S. won. The big game of the season came on February 8. A victory over Hunting- ton Park meant a tie for championship honors of Central League. U. H. S. was handicapped by the loss of MacCormack, the star center, who was kept from the game because of injuries received at San Fernando. The game was the fastest played in the league during the 1916 season and resulted in a tie at the end of the fourth quarter. In the five minutes overtime play, Hunting- ton Park scored five points to our three, winning the game by a margin of two points. PREPS Page 474 MIXER MAC CORMACK METCALFE THREE VETS 1915 After a disastrous practice season, the 1915 aggregation of ball R 1 11 tossers waded through all opposition, and tied for the cham- CdbcDdU pionship of their division of the league, only to be defeated 10-9 by Hun tington Park in the post-season game to decide the winner. The battery, Glen Ostrander and Carl Speer worked smoothly, the former keeping the hits well scattered and incidentally establishing an enviable strike- out record. The infield, Eugene Mixer on first, MacCormack at second, Charley Dean on third, and Tommy Metcalfe at short, played like a big league combination. Love, Ball, Parks and Ogborn rendered their services in the outer gardens. Following are a few figures which should serve as a mark for future genera- tions of Preps. Batting averages: Love .369; Speer .306; Metcalfe .369; Dean .315; Ball .270; Mi.xer .222; MacCormack .200 ; Ostrander .115; Ogborn .091. Home runs: Dean 2; Metcalfe 1. 1916 If early season practice has given any indication of the per- R 1 11 Sonne! of this year ' s team, the familiar form of Mixer will DdScDdll again be seen on first. MacCormack, last year ' s captain, will undoubtedly alternate between second base and the pitcher ' s box, and if he maintains his usual batting average he should prove a strong factor in the offensive strength of the team. Captain Tommy Metcalfe, winner of the 1915 baseball trophy, will occupy a position in the infield, and should materially raise the batting average of the team. In addition to these three men, all of whom have seen four hard years of service under Prep colors, are Terry at short and Burks at second base who loom up as strong candidates for positions. PREPS Page 475 Social Events One of the most brilliant affairs of the year of 1914-15 was the farewell party given by the junior class in honor of the graduating class, at the home of Miss Elene O ' Haver, during the latter part of May. The decorations were in the class colors, white and gold, and the color scheme was carried out in rose buds and Shasta daisies. The success of the affair was largely due to the efforts of Miss Venus Wilson, Miss Johnston, Miss Spangler and Mr. Ogborn, class president. On October 22, the 1916 social season was opened with a masquerade party at the Alpha Rho sorority lodge. The house was decorated in true Hallowe ' en style, with black cats and witches, and glowing yellow lights. Apple cider and doughnuts were served as refreshments. Nearly all the members of the student body and faculty turned out for this affair. The unique costumes were a source of much merriment, every nationality and class of people being repre- sented, from Hawaiian girls to Spanish priests. Early in the year the girls of the college Y. W. C. A. entertained the girls of the University High School. The girls went in a body to Exposition Park, where informal games were played, and refreshments served in the form of a picnic lunch on the tables under the trees. Plans were discussed for organiz- ing the Junior Y. W. C. A. in the High School. One of the most delightful events of the year was the Christmas party. The house was beautifully decorated in the holiday colors, red and green, the color scheme being carried out with holly wreaths and cedar branches. Al- though a large Christmas tree occupied a prominent place, the guests received their presents by fishing through a hole in the ice of the pond. One of the unique features was the centerpiece of the table. It represented a pond covered with ice, with little manikins dancing about a Christmas tree in the midst of a snowstorm. Miss Lorene Dickerson and her committee had charge of the decorating, Miss Gertruda Martin and committee of the refreshments, and Miss Catherine Girdlestone and committee of the entertaining. High Jinks was the title chosen for the very informal dinner given at the close of the basketball season by Professor Willett, in honor of the basketball team. The dinner was served in the University cafeteria. Decorations were in the school colors, maroon and gold. The students gathered in East Hall and formed for the grand march through the halls to the cafeteria, where plates were laid for more than fifty people. Messrs. Beall, Brignall and Petitfils, and the Ukulele Club trio entertained with cabaret stunts, both dur- ing the dinner and later in East Hall, where the company adjourned to play baseball, basketball, and other appropriate indoor athletics. Miss Marian Long directed the refreshment committee, while Miss Johnston and com- mittee took charge of the entertainment for the evening. PREPS Page 476 The girls of the University High School presented their annual ent ertain- ment to the student body and faculty shortly after the Christmas vacation. The program was arranged by Miss Esther Wilson and Miss Marie Cooney, and was given at the regular chapel hour in Aristotelian Hall. One of the features was a Visit from the Other World, in which many of the girls took parts representing the ghosts of some of the better known boys and faculty members. Miss Tessie Tanzola gave a wonderful interpretation of one of the Hungarian Rhapsodies on the piano; Miss Valeria Johnston gave an original leap year reading, Misses Esther and Venus Wilson sang a duet, and Miss Marie Cooney gave a reading. On March 5, at the regular chapel period, the boys gave their annual enter- tainment to the student body, faculty, and patrons of the University High School. Mr. Roy Brignall gave two original piano solos, followed by a violin solo by Mr. Kendrick. Messrs. Beall, Petitfils and Delbert Brignall sang. Several of the boys took part in a lyrical skit representing the characteristic sayings and expressions of some of the girls. Mr. Claude Reeves and Clarence McCollum presented a little skit entitled Caught with the Goods. The program closed with another piano solo by Mr. Brignall. Miss Avis Spangler, student-body vice-president for the second semester, opened her term of office with a good old-fashioned hard-times party at the home of Mrs. Adams of Westmoreland Place. Miss Marie Cooney was chairman of the decorating committee. Miss Marian Long and committee served the refreshments, in the form of soda-pop in the bottles with straws, all-day suckers, animal crackers, and sandwiches. The guests grew hilarious under the able direction of Miss Spangler, who had charge of the entertain- ment committee. The guests were dressed appropriately as bums and bumesses. PREPS Page 477 Junior Y. W. C. A. Although the plans for a club which would unite the girls of the student body more firmly together in a bond of good- fellowship have long been anticipated, it was not until this year that they ma- terialized in the form of what is known as the Junior Y. W. C. A. Although the club is still very much in its infancy, and while there is still great room for enlargement and improvement, it has amply met those requirements. The club is already oflficially established as a de- partment of the University Y. W. C. A., and is affiliated with the national organ- ization. Any girl of the student body of the University High School is eligible to membership, and is admitted upon the re- ceipt of a small entrance fee. Dues are just large enough to meet the running expenses, and are payable each semester. The officers are elected from the girl members in conjunction with an advisory board elected from the college membership with the advice of the General Secretary. Business meetings are held once a month at the regular chapel hour. Get-acquainted and fun meetings occur as often as possible, presupposing attendance at the business sessions. Perfection, spiritually and physically is the goal toward which the club is aiming. VALERIA JOHNSTON, PRESIDENT Ukulele Club The Ukulele Club is really more of a stringed orchestra than it is an organ- ization for the Hawaiian instrument alone. Taro-paches, guitars, banjos, mandolins, and the Russian baleli were added to the original list of eight ukes, until there were twenty-two musical pieces of assorted shapes and sizes. This club is another indication of the reincarnation of pep in the preps. It was organized this year, and none of the members regret joining it. Meet- ings are held once a week at the homes of the vari ous members, both for mu- sical and social inspiration. Nobody has as yet attended a meeting and been known to complain of the lack of inspiration before adjournment. All the members think the club a grand success.

OFFICERS First Semester Second Semester Serge Jacobs President Claude Reeves WiLMAM Farber Vice-president Charles Dvvight Robert Kenney Secretary Robert Shields Claude Reeves Treasurer Serge Jacobs Charles Dwight Sergeant-at-Arms William Farber Bert McDonald Parliamentarian and Reporter.. . .Bert McDonald The Atheneum Literar Society was founded February 6, 1915, by the young men students of the University High School, and has for its main pur- pose the promotion of a deeper interest in literary studies, public speaking, de- bating, and parliamentary law. Membership in this organization is limited, for the most part, to such stu- dents as have established a good moral reputation and who have received recommended grades in their studies. During the current year the society has grown in numbers and maintained a good degree of interest. Each member has rightly felt that he had a work to do if the society was to fulfill the aims of its founders. For this reason the weekly programs, consisting of biographical essays, select readings, current events, debates, and drills in parliamentary law, have been very helpful and entertaining. It is the earnest hope of the present membership that the society in the years to come will continue to adhere to the high ideals with which it set out, and thus make for itself an honored place among the student activities in the Uni- versity High School.

Under the able coaching of E. Lester Cox, a graduate student of the University and former member of the Varsity debating team, two teams were developed and placed in the field. A hot and bitter contest took place on the evening of May 12, when the University High School debaters met the Puente High School team in a dual debate, the question being, Resolved, That the United States should renounce the Monroe Doctrine. The prep team, James Rogers and Bert McDonald, upholding the affirm- ative, defeated Laurren Smith and Margaret Tundall of Puente by a 2-1 decision, in Aristotelian hall. Mr. McDonald was awarded first place and Mr. Rogers second, the total points being 554-533. In the debate at Puente, Claude Reeves and Seymour Siegal, upholding the negative, lost in a hard-fought struggle by a 2-1 score, Mr. Reeves winning first place. The total points were 548-552. r tf t PREPS Page 4S0 BUSINESS WANTS YOU For bright, capable, well-trained young men and women, the demand for our graduates exceeds the supply.

N lines Sons Hawaiian Hand-made Instruments These instruments are made under the supervision of the inventor himself, Mr. Manuel Nunes, who invented the Uku- lele in 1879 and which was taken up by all classes of Ha- waiian society, the then King Kalakaua and his wife, the late Queen Kapiolani, together with princes and princesses of blood Royal who traced their lineage back to the Kamehamehas, be- coming ardent devotees of the instrument and introducing it in the Royal feasts. Today it is as much a part of the Luau and the Hula as the viands served or the dancers and other native customs. In fact no gathering is complete without the Ukulele and is without doubt the national instrument of the Hawaiian people. Every M. Nunes Sons Ukulele or Steel-guitar is made from thoroughly seasoned, beautifully grained Koa (Hawaiian mahogany) wood, a large quan- tity of which Mr. Nunes has had seasoning for years. The Genuine M. Nunes Sons Hawaiian hand-made Ukuleles and Steel-guitars do not cost vou any more than the many cheap inferior imitations on the market.
